In other news, I feel like a lazy ass.
BBC NEWS | Asia-Pacific | Japanese 95-year-old sets record:
"A 95-year-old Japanese man has slashed the world 100 metres sprint record for men aged 95-99, clocking 22.04 seconds.
Kozo Haraguchi, who only took up running aged 65... took almost two seconds off the previous record in this age group, which stood at 24.01.
Mr Haraguchi said that it was the first time he had raced in the rain, and he was concentrating hard on not slipping.
"Everyone was cheering me on so I kept thinking I mustn't fall over," he told reporters.
...He said the secret of his success was taking an hour-long daily walk around his neighbourhood."
