Impressive. He started running marathons at 89!

Despite being almost 39 weeks pregnant when she hit the starting line of the Chicago Marathon, Miller ran through labor contractions and the unusually warm 77-degree day to finish the race. She delivered a healthy daughter about 7 1/2 hours later.

It appears that he started running to recover from depression at the age of 89 when he lost his wife and son.

Cool. I've got 53 years to train. That record will be mine!

I can safely assume that the record is not that for the marathon time.
