Ida Keeling will be 101 this month, and she just set a new world record for being the oldest to complete the 100-meter dash at the Penn Relays in Philadelphia last Saturday. All the contestants are 80 and above. Keeling being the oldest though, won the heart of the audience as they all cheered her till she finished.
The great-great-grandmother from New York City finished at 1:17 and celebrated with a few pushups. She entered her first race at the age of 67. I wanna be like that when I grow up :) See videos below:
