Age-Centric Focus: Your comment emphasizes the person's age (100 years old) as the primary factor behind the emotional reaction. While it's perfectly reasonable to be moved by such an achievement, focusing solely on age may inadvertently contribute to age-related stereotypes or reinforce the idea that older individuals are only remarkable because of their age. Potential Generalization: While your comment doesn't generalize negatively, there is a risk that some readers might interpret it as implying that all 100-year-olds should be equally celebrated for similar achievements. In reality, individuals vary widely in their abilities and accomplishments, regardless of age.

@@jasonito23 Your praise may be nice, but the point you are saying is that these athletes are great DESPITE their AGE. And that can be considered positive ageism, which is inhumane, because positive ageism is still ageism, you are reducing these individuals to their age.

@@iche9373 dude it's not that deep. Call it what you like, it wasn't negative in any way. He hadn't seen people over a certain age have a physical race. And he enjoyed it as he hadn't seen it before.

The statement "100 years old, and still kicking" is generally meant to be positive and celebratory, rather than a form of ageism. It's used to highlight and applaud someone's longevity and vitality at an advanced age, suggesting that they are still active and engaged in life despite reaching the age of 100. However, it's important to remember that the perception of age and aging can vary among individuals, and some people may find such statements patronizing or potentially reinforcing stereotypes about older individuals. The intent and context in which such statements are made play a significant role in determining whether they are viewed as positive or potentially ageist.
I’m blown away. I’m 30 and started taking running seriously at 16. This gives me all the determination I need to never stop running. I pray I’m still able to run at 80 plus. Much respect to Lester
Damn! Thats the most exciting races I have ever seen. When the hell would anyone see another race with an athlete who is 100 years old in this massive setting. That was some history right there. Have anyone ever seen this before?
It's a down south and carribean thing. My grandma race when she was 64 at a church event. It was funny and exciting at the same time. But the elders were going for it, mind you they were running barefooted on grass. RIP Granma.

@@GrnXnham I think most people need to be able to run 100m in at least 14-15. Sprint training is very underrated, and people don't bother or understand how it can keep your body very strong and conditioned. Being able to run explosivly can potentially get you out of a dangerous situation, or even save someone's life where every second counts.

100-year-old Lester Wright thrills crowd in 100-meter dash at Penn Relays: But you lost 😡 I had 100 thousand dollars bet on you dude and you let me down 🤬
LOL
?
Seeing as 0.004% of the world's population live to see 100 I'm gonna stick my neck out and say that's a pretty good performance by Lester. 👍
One of the last generations of 100 year olds. The next will be cyborg ish and probably live to be 150 haha. 100m in 6s
Man, this made me just weep. So amazing and inspiring to watch these utterly amazing races, and that especially that uttterly amazing 100 year old man. I am just so emotional right now. Just so beautiuful. ❤
