 Recently, an amazing old lady surprised the world by running
very fast. She is only about 137 centimeters tall and weighs 37 kilograms. Her
name is Ida Keeling and she lives in New York.
Last week, she set a new world record by
sprinting 60 meters in 29.86
seconds! Can you guess her age by looking
at her photos? Don’t be surprised. She is 95 years old! In fact, Mrs.
Keeling is the oldest woman to break this record. But she is still
very healthy and has no intention of stopping! “I
feel younger now than when I was in my 30s and 40s!” she said with a bright smile. She
started running at the age of 67 when her daughter Shelley convinced her to take up running to stay healthy.
Since then, Mrs. Keeling has been on the move, setting record after
record, and finally becoming one of the
world’s oldest sprinting legends. Way to go, Mrs.
Keeling! |
