Legendary sprinter Merlene Ottey set another world record for the Masters women 100 metres when she sped to 11.67 seconds in the Slovenian Athletics League.
Competing against athletes as much 29 years younger, Ottey clocked 11.67 to qualify for the 100 meter final where she then clocked 11.71 for second place.
Ottey, who turned 50 in May, was also entered for the 200 metres but did not compete.
No wind reading I could find. Before Merlene turned 50, the W50 record was something like 12.5.
What are the fastest female 100m times (open) for Canada so far this year? I would think there are just a handful of women running faster than that in their prime.
Just hillarious…There was a funny looking Canadian chick that ran the 100 at the under 23 champs here in fla. She got beat to death. Her and her mom had terrible weaves!
