Nadine O’Connor has idolized fellow Californian Irene Obera for years. Yesterday, Nadine paid her respects on the track — lowering Irene’s 1999 world record in the W65 100 by nearly two-tenths of a second in her first outdoor race of the season. Running in temps in the low 60s, Nadine took third in the masters women’s exhibition at the Mt. SAC Relays in Walnut, cenforce California. But her legal time of 14.11 shattered Irene’s record of 14.29. It was her sixth world record since turning 65 in March! Later, M40 Aaron Thigpen ran a legal 10.60 in an open heat — bettering his own listed ambien American record of 10.73 from Charlotte 2006 (and inching closer to Troy Douglas’ listed WR of 10.42 but not actual best of 10.29).

And M45 Willie Gault also took on the collegians, clocking a legal 22.36 for 200 — better than Kevin Morning’s listed WR of 22.13 but not as good as Willie’s own 21.91 from last year.
Willie also clocked a legal 10.96 for 100 — short of his own M45 WR of 10.72 from last year’s USATF open nationals in Indy.
Here’s a shot of Rita Hanscom leading Nadine at the finish — a sneak preview of an online gallery I’ll post soon:

Here’s Nadine and her coach/mate Bud Held:
