Default Speaking of World Records

Don't know about you, but I find this very impressive.

The world record time for a 100 meter sprint on a track set by a 27 years
old is bit less than 10 seconds. Here is an article that describes the 100
meter sprint record held by a 100 year old: About 30 seconds.

Let's see... If this guy could ski he'd be doing 50 km races in 6 hours.
