Frenchman smashes M60 world indoor record for 1500

The 1500-meter WRs are dropping like flies! First Alastair Dunlop dunks the M55. Then Tony Young yanks M45. Now we learn that Raymond Zembri of France has zapped the M60 record. A 1972 Munich Olympian in the 5000 meters (he didn’t make the final), Raymond ran the 15 in 4:36.52 at the French masters nationals over the weekend — one of 23 French masters age-group records. (Here’s a story on his record du Monde.) He bettered the listed M60 world indoor record of 4:37.80 by Britain’s Maurice Morrell back in 1994. Ray turned 60 the day after Christmas.
