Let's make this birthday one to remember.

41 years old (Born on January 31, 1984)

Happy Birthday, Jeremy Wariner! You're still sprinting through life faster than most of us can jog to the fridge. From your golden moments at Athens in 2004—where you blazed past competitors for two Olympic gold medals—to Beijing in 2008, where you added another shiny gold and a silver medal to your collection, you've always been ahead of the pack.

Even though time passes quicker than one lap around the track (especially when you're running it), we hope today brings as much joy as standing atop that podium did. Keep racing toward greatness—but maybe slow down enough today for cake!
