Tony Young threatens own M40 mile record
Tony Young of Washington state apparently has discovered the fountain of youth. (Or maybe just hard training and wise choice of races.) On June 4 he nearly matched his own American M40 record in the mile — set two years ago. Tony ran 4:07.27 on June 4 at a meet in Nashville, Tennessee. He is 43 years old. At age 40, he ran 4:09.61. At age 41 he ran 4:07.25. Officially, though, Young’s American M40 record is 4:09.61. Go figure.
