- Tom_Patsalis abstract "Tom Patsalis (born December 6, 1921) is an American track and field athlete. He has set 26 World Records in his career, a career that is still active in his late 80's. As of 2011, he is the current World Record holder in the M60 Long Jump, set in 1982 thus a record he has held for almost three decades. He is also the American record holder in the Long Jump for the M60 age division, has an as yet unrecognized mark that has been pending since 1977 (though recognized by the California Track News chief statistician at the time, Percy Knox) still 7 inches superior to the listed American record and is the American record holder in the Triple Jump in the M60 and M65 age divisions. He was selected to the Masters division of the National Track and Field Hall of Fame in 2003.Patsalis was originally from Detroit, Michigan but, after 50 years of marriage, he retired in Alhambra, California. He claims he has been participating in track and field since high school, 70 years in the sport. In addition to jumping, he also runs sprints and hurdled until he was 70. He was a member of the University of Southern California track team in 1949, a teammate of Olympian Mel Patton, graduating from the university in 1950, when he was 28 years old—his education delayed by World War II. He was a pioneer in the early days of Masters athletics, winning three events at the 2nd ever World Association of Veteran Athletes Championships in 1977 in Gothenburg, Sweden. He's won at the World Championships many times since and is looking forward to the 2011 World Masters Athletics Championships in nearby Sacramento, California. In 1981, just 8 months before his 60th birthday, he long jumped over 20 feet and four months before that same birthday he triple jumped over 40 feet, the oldest person to achieve such milestones. In 1982, he was selected California Track and Running News "Masters Athlete of the Year" after setting the M60 World Record in both the long jump and triple jump the same day at the Southern California TAC Championships at California State University, Los Angeles.".
