Kim Collins subject of greatest Facebook graphic in world history

Talk about freaks of nature. This graphic is ungodly good.

Talk about freaks of nature. This graphic kills it.

So what makes Kim Collins such a sprint guru? Well, everything. He’s fast and long-lived and will appear in his fifth Olympics at the rate he’s going. He has the three fastest indoor 60 times this season at age 38. And when he runs the 100 (eventually) this season, he’ll join this IAAF Top List. Kim, who will be 40 come Rio, gives some advice in a quickie Spikes magazine listicle. He’s also the inspiration for the greatest Web graphic I’ve ever seen.

    A spiritual teacher said: “Don’t spend prematurely the energies of your body”.
    As a wise man, Kim follows this rule.
    So many advices of the type “Train hard”, “No pain, no gain”, etc., go against the laws of Mother Nature (there is no over-strain in Nature) and lead to unnecessary burnout, exhaustion and depletion (which may destroy one’s health and even shorten one’s life).
    One can not spend more fuel than he has in the tank.
    Kim is a real inspiration, especially for masters athletes. I’d like to congratulate him for his coming birthday (April 5-th), wish him the longest athletic longevity possible, and will be very happy if he goes sub-9.90 on 100m this summer.

    How tall and what is Kim Collins weight?

    Some sources have him as 5’9′ others 5’10 and weight varies from 146 to 170.
    I think his thinner build has helped his longevity in sprinting.
