    << Despite the worse for wear appearance, he ran faster than anyone his age ever has over the
    42.2-kilometre distance. He became the first person in the world his age class to break the
    three-hour barrier for the marathon when he crossed the finish line in front of Metro Hall yesterday

    According to figures I have seen published by WAVA (former World Association of Veteran Athletes )
    the factor for a 72 year old man running a marathon is .7353, which equates to a time of 2 hours 11
    minutes 44 seconds.
