Boston University student breaks joggling world record

A Boston University student broke the world record for an activity not many people may know: "joggling."

Zachary Prescott ran a mile while also juggling in 4:43.2, beating the previous joggling record set back in 1986 by half a second.

Prescott, a Weymouth native, runs for the university's track and field team, and pulled off the feat on Boston University's own track.

"All my friends were there, they were being really supportive and it was really fun," Prescott said. "I was like, 'Alright, I gotta do it if everyone's gonna be here,' you know?"
