And here I thought the 4-person 75+ year old RAAM team was impressive and was my inspiration (currently averaging nearly 15mph, too!)

But, now I want to be a SuperGranny! when I grow up :D

Race Accross America team called Great Grand PAC Masters:

http://www.raceacrossamerica.org/raam/blog.php?s_N_Year_ID=2&B=3

4 guys, youngest is 73 and oldest is 85. Currently 884.1 miles in and averaging 14.31 mph.

I can't find the link about their logo...it is an hourglass with the sand running. The comment was something about their muscles being the neck of the hour glass--keep 'em fit and strong and it slows down the sand through the hourglass.
