Default 109-Year Old Woman Scores Her First Soccer Goal

You might imagine that once you're old, the only "firsts" you have to look forward to involve medical procedures and great-great-great-grandkids. But at 109 years old, Anna Ferris just scored her first soccer goal.

Word started spreading about Anna last year, when she finished a 100-meter dash at the Orange County Senior Games in her walker. This past weekend at the 2009 games she managed to smack a softball 15 feet, throw one 16 and lob a football more than 3 yards. Every event is another chance at victory for this sprightly centenarian (not to be confused with Anna Faris, the similarly-named starlet of "House Bunny").

In addition to her athletic endeavors, Anna enjoys chocolate and good wine. Not bad for someone who was born before the crossword puzzle was even invented.

Her family attributes Anna's good health to the fact that she exercises to stay strong, sometimes taking to the driveway to do laps with her walker. That officially makes her more athletic than we are.
