Your probably thinking...What Record? In Birmingham Alabama over the weekend the National Senior Games were being held. In comes Julia “Hurricane” Hawkins who was signed up for the 100 meter dash. She broke the previous record and dashed in 40.12 seconds. When interviewed after the event she says she really enjoys the outdoors and is an avid bike rider and likes to garden as well. She says she knew she could do track because she said "everytime I get out side the phone rings and I have to run to get it". Great training for the event don't you think? The only negitive thing she had to say is that she missed her nap to participate in the dash.
