TORONTO - Fauja Singh secured a spot in the Guiness World Book of Records on Sunday at the Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon. The 100-year-old accomplished an amazing feat, completing the gruelling 42.195-kilometre marathon and becoming the oldest person ever to complete a full-distance marathon. http://ca.news.yahoo.com/centurian-marathoner-singh-sets-world-record-completing-toronto-230149007.html
