Lost in the hoopla over Coolsaet, Gillis, and the other Canadian males at the Toronto marathon today was an incredible run by another Canadian legend. Ed Whitlock, the 79-year old runner who has an incredible resume of age-group records, added another one today. One year after running 1:37:34 at the Toronto Half Marathon, he found some more speed this year in running an incredible 1:34:27!! Another world record for Whitlock, who turns 80 in March!!
A great article on Whitlock, who trains every day by running around a graveyard near his house, can be found here...
