Sawang Janpram, the oldest athlete competing at the World Masters Athletics Championships (WMAC) currently underway in Daegu, South Korea, continued to impress by winning another gold medal on Saturday, raising his total to two golds at the event.
According to organizers, the Thai runner finished first in his event, securing his second consecutive gold. The achievement is all the more remarkable given that he is the oldest among all athletes participating this year.
This latest victory comes just days after Janpram claimed his first gold at the championships. His endurance and sportsmanship have drawn special attention from the media and fans present in Daegu.
The WMAC brings together senior athletes from around the world, competing in various age groups. A 97-year-old competing at such a high level is a testament to unwavering sporting spirit and a healthy lifestyle.
Janpram is expected to continue competing in the remaining events before the closing ceremony.
