Ida Keeling, 99-year-old great-grandmother, set a world record in a 100-meter race in Ohio after she ran it in 59.8 seconds, the fastest ever for a person her age in an internationally recognized race. Keeling said she started running back in 1967 to deal with the death of her son. Her doctor informed her that she is as healthy as a 20-year-old. Keeling said she will be back again in 2015, when she will try and break her own record.
