Running, Racing, Hugging, Smiling: 2017 Masters Women 100 Meter Track Championships

By now, we're fairly certain that you have heard about Julia Hawkins, who just ran a 40.12 in the Masters Women 80-100+ 100 Meter USA Track & Field outdoor championships this past Saturday. If you haven't heard about this, watch USATF's video below.  Hawkins, by the way, apparently started her running career at age 100, so it really is never too late, you know.

Also, that's Christel Donley (82) in the lead.

Even if you have already heard about this, and even if you have watched the video, watch it again. The whole thing, especially the hug at the end, really is the best thing.

Happy Wednesday!

These 💪ladies prove that age is just a number. Check out the Women's 80-100+ 100m, with 82-year-old Christel Donley (21.60), 92-year-old Mary Norckauer (33.21) and 101-year-old Julia Hawkins (40.12)! • Watch more on demand on USATF.TV+. #usatf #usatfmasterstrack #trackandfield #tracknation #inspire #track
