Yeap, he doesn’t look 31 at all, kind reminds me, Coca-Cola under 18 tournaments back in the days.
95 % of the players were overage.

Many a times, folks who way less are just skinny fat. Yaani, a small body which is packed with fat.

SKINNY FAT
DFN: A person who is not overweight and have skinny look but still have a high fat percentage and low muscular mass. Usually those people have a low caloric diet, that’s why they are skinny, but are not involved in any sports activities or trainings and that’s why they don’t have any muscle. Since between the bone and the skin those people only have fat, the skin can be deformed easily because the skin layer is located on an unstable matter (fat).

Skinny fat woman look sexy from a certain distance but they have soft jelly skin and still have some cellulite even if they are in there early 20.

I’m your age and I’m almost double your weight but I believe being skinny doesn’t necessarily mean one’s healthy.

I doubt he is more than 31 years. After 31 years, it would be extremely difficult to win that kind of a marathon no matter how good you were. I mean think about it, how many athletes stay elite after age 31 in any sport.

I think this was his last Olympics appearance.

Lakini some golfers and boxers compete well into their forties. And most elite marathoners are 28 and above.

[Simiyu22]

Golf is a pure sport, demands less athletism as required by a marathon. It require more intelligence than athletism. Boxing only usually has one or two top boxers at a time. Competition at the top is limited to two or 3. Marathon competition is stiff. A 32 year old has almost no chance. Just watch and see him next year. He looks old but that is just a look. I say he is 32 max.
