World’s oldest Ironman plans to keep competing into his 90s

Also the World's oldest auto-masochist and age just magnifies the pain, but...hey!...Ganbatte, yo!

Excellent!

Never give up...!

Out here they say, age is just a number. Hiromu Inada is doing fine. All the best.

Is this really news ?!

What a man! Sounds fitter than the average person half his age.

Good luck, Inada-san! He has a better body and fitness than most men in their 30s! Hope he gets that new Guinness world record.

swim 3.86 km, bike 180.25 km and fun a full 42.19 km marathon...

At 87? Unbelievable.

This is a great story. Congratulations to this man!! What an inspiration to us all!! It’s quite remarkable what can be achieved!!

'I-IIIIIIIIII am Ironnnnn Mannnnnn!' Da-da da-da-da, da-da-da-da da-da-da-da da-da-da! 

Keep it up as long as you can, Inada-san.

A splendid example to all older citizens, and doesn't Japan have the oldest woman to climb Everest? And a long history of good marathon runners too. They seem to excel at endurance events, I suspect because of their neat, efficient physiques and generally good diets. I see the importance of physique for endurance in cross-country skiing events, another sport in which they're quite competitive, though there the longer European physique can often perform a bit better.

Abbey, yes it is news. You must be a hoot at parties

Who am I kidding? You never get invited to them.
