The all-time record at the World Snail Racing Championships was set in 1995 by a snail named Archie covering the official 33 cm (13 in) course — how many seconds did it take?

Answer

120 seconds

Archie, trained by Carl Bramham, sprinted the course in exactly 2 minutes — a record that still stands. The championships are held in Congham, England, on a damp tabletop: snails race from the center of a circle outward, and every race starts with the cry 'Ready, steady, SLOW!'
