Ibrahima Wade
Ibrahima Wade (born 6 September 1968) is a French sprinter who specializes in the 400 metres. He switched nationality from his birth country Senegal in 2000.
His personal best time is 45.05 seconds, achieved in August 1998 in Dakar. With 45.76 seconds from July 2004, he held the Masters M35 World record.[1] The record has been improved upon twice since, by Alvin Harrison (DOM) with a 45.68 in 2009 and by Chris Brown (BAH),with a 44.59 in 2014.[2] but neither of those marks have yet been ratified by World Masters Athletics, so Wade's mark still stands as the official record.
He reached the semi finals of the World Championships in 1997 and 1999.

gollark: You know, remote annoying beep enablement would be great on my constantly lost phone.
gollark: Shame PC speakers aren't around so you can't remotely beep them.
gollark: That makes you a BLASPH.
gollark: Ah. I see.
gollark: <@&198138780132179968> <@270035320894914560>/aus210 has stolen my (enchanted with Unbreaking something/Mending) elytra.I was in T79/i02p/n64c/pjals' base (aus210 wanted help with some code, and they live in the same place with some weird connecting tunnels) and came across an armor stand (it was in an area of the base I was trusted in - pjals sometimes wants to demo stuff to me or get me to help debug, and the claim organization is really odd). I accidentally gave it my neural connector, and while trying to figure out how to get it back swapped my armor onto it (turns out shiftrightclick does that). Eventually I got them both back, but while my elytra was on the stand aus210 stole it. I asked for it back and they repeatedly denied it.They have claimed:- they can keep it because I intentionally left it there (this is wrong, and I said so)- there was no evidence that it was mine so they can keep it (...)EDIT: valithor got involved and got them to actually give it back, which they did after ~10 minutes of generally delaying, apparently leaving it in storage, and dropping it wrong.
