Wilson Chebet came close to the absolute world record in Rotterdam but fell short.  Ed Whitlock, however, destroyed the 80-84 AG record.

Canada’s Ed Whitlock, 80 years old, ran a spectacular 3:25:43 (3:25:40 net) to smash the world 80-84 record of 3:39:18 set by Australia’s Robert Horman at Brisbane in 1998.

3:25 at 80 is just jaw-dropping.  Cheers to Ed!
