| Charles Rogers, 96. |
When Charles Ross (91) discovered that it hadn't been done before, he knew he had an opportunity. So he got a few of his fellow 90 year-old-plus friends together and entered the USATF Masters Championship Relays. That mean he and his friends, Champion Goldy Sr. (97), Orville Rogers (96), Roy Englert (92) and Charles Boyle (91), combined to set World Records (and Here) in the 4 x 100, 4 x 400 and 4 x 800 Relays! (Goldy was on the 4 x 100 team and Charles Boyle took his place on the other races.)
4 x 100M (90+) 2:22.37 WR
4 x 400M (90+) 12:41.69 WR
4 x 800M (90+) 28:17.10 WR

Okay, everybody on a PSU T&F-XC teams from around 1968 to 1977 do the math and let's start training to take these guys down starting in August 2047.

hee hee hee Although at my current rate of decline I am unlikely to help. A 7:00 half mile is unlikely for me in my 70's, let alone the 90's! Those guys averaged 14:06 per mile and I usually jog 10 to 11 minute miles already. (Slinks off with head held in shame...)
