I came across this Kiwi who just turned 50, and already has 5 world records it seems. I was thinking about Cameron Brown and Crowie still crushing some long distance triathlons in their mid 40's, and it occurred to me that perhaps in a few years one of those guys might be setting world running records. Of course they are not going to approach this guys, he is stretching at doing a 10k, but maybe 1/2 or full marathon??

I mean Cameron just ran a 2;42 or something like that at 46 in an ironman, who knows what his stand alone could be? Probably not going to break the 2;20 it would take for the WR, but probably could be one of the fastest, if not the fastest competing at the time...
Anyway just going through some thought experiments on some of our tough guys still hanging in there..At the very least when Cameron does an 8;20+ ironman at 50, that will be pretty special, I wonder if he will race AG?...Some head will explode here for sure when he finally does.. (-;
