Ed Whitlock did it again. He popped an incredible 3:25:43 (3:25:40 net) at Rotterdam at age 80, blowing away the previous age-group world record (3:39:18).
Congratulations, Ed. You truly inspire me.

great job!
Hats off for Ed Whitlock, BIG TIME, bowing as I write this!
Ed has said he doesn't think of himself as an inspirational figure.
But he has once again stunningly extended the boundaries of human achievement, and this inspires all of us for whom running spans a lifetime.
Fantastic Ed! I look foward to hearing your post race analysis.
At First I saw 3:25 and thought "so what", then I saw 'age 80'. Holy crap.
unfrigging believable!

Not only is the time incredible at his age, but this was in Rotterdam - I can only hope I'm running that fast at that age, let along traveling all over the world to do it.
Ed is awesome.
Inspiring indeed. Nice work Ed, congrats!
I can't not post on this thread.
This is a great accomplishment.
Congratulations, young man!

You will not be running that fast at that age. Ed is freak of nature. A lot of 80 year-olds can barely walk around the block, let alone run 26+ miles at 7:50 pace.
