I'm 90 and Just Ran the Fastest 10K Ever Recorded for Someone My Age
Scottish Athletics called the performance a world best in the M90 category, as he finished ahead of every other 90-year-old runner reported.
- On September 13, 90-year-old Ian Winship completed the Cumbernauld 10k in 1:04:37, achieving a time widely considered a world best in the M90 age category.
- A Suez Crisis veteran and former paratrooper, Winship maintains his fitness through daily long walks totaling up to 20,000 steps, which he credits for his sustained health and purpose.
- Running alongside his daughter Fiona Fleming and grandson Kyle Fleming, Winship drew praise from North Lanarkshire Provost Kenneth Duffy, who called the performance a 'remarkable accomplishment' for his age.
- Winship was 'delighted' but a little 'wobbly' at the finish line, telling the Press Association he was emotional realizing the significance of his achievement.
- Winship's next objective is to 'live to 100,' explaining that he runs because it keeps him sane, fit, and out of trouble.
