101-year-old man to run London Marathon

Thank goodness I ran my marathon last year. Who wants to compete with Buster Martin who is currently training for the 2008 London Marathon. At least I am faster than this guy ... he ran a 1/2 in five hours and 13 minutes. Last year my goal was to beat Katie Homes, and I did! Now I think that this guy should inspire just about anyone to get into the world of the marathon. If a 101-year-old man can train for this type of race, you can too! I would love to hear an excuse that tops "I am 101-years-old" :) Its gonna be a hard one to beat!

Does this beat being 101?

This guy is definitely crazier than the 101-year-old, so if that is the measurement tool ... he is a sure winner :)
