Japanese centenarian Hidekichi Miyazaki also known as
'Golden Bolt' set a fresh record as the world's oldest
competitive sprinter on Wednesday, one day after turning
105. Miyazaki completed his heat with a time of 42.22. His
personal record of 34.10, achieved when he was 103-years-
old, remains in the Guinness Book of World Records.
Imitating the signature pose of the fastest man in the
world, Jamaican Usain Bolt, Miyazaki said he would
love the chance to race against the Olympic gold medallist.

"I will say this: I'm proud of my health. My brain
might not be the sharpest but physically I'm tip-top.
I've never had any health problems. The doctors
are amazed by me. I can definitely keep on running
for another two or three years."

Miyazaki didn't take up running until his 90s, when many
of the friends he used to play board games with passed
away and he was looking for an activity he could do on his
own, Reuters reports.
