Take a look at how Joachim Cruz looks at his age. He isn't competing in master's events but looks like he could easily take down master's 800m WRs. In this little Instagram video he talks about how he trained for the 800 in his younger days.
Not easily. M60 WR like 2:07 and getting faster. It's easier for him to drop down and race 200m like Joetta Clark is doing.
Cruz's life expectancy is about 80. Of course I wish him 100, but let's check back in 17 years. Birthday March 12. Tough for any man to go past 80, let alone run fast at that age.
His Father died at age 50 in 1981 of heart attack. He's obviously much fitter and healthier though.
Andrew Ridley just set a new M60 world indoor 800m record of 2:05.13.
I've had the pleasure of meeting and talking with Kenton. He's the real deal. I chalk up his accomplishments to a late start in masters track (age 66), thereby avoiding years of injury. By comparison, the following are my progressions, as a 50 sec. 440 yr college runner:
I bet that all those World record holders are very wealthy white guys how can afford "Enhancement" like TRT etc at older age or African Americans can't ran as 60 70 or 80 old guys?
Impressive but I have a hard time believing this is clean especially as he is a doctor and likely has doctor friends that will prescribe doping agents for him.
