71 years old (Born on December 29, 1953)
Happy Birthday, Kate Schmidt! You’ve always known how to throw a party—after all, your legendary javelin tosses at Munich in 1972 and Montreal in 1976 earned you Olympic bronze medals and set world records soaring. Rumor has it that NASA still tracks one of your throws orbiting Earth!Even today, no one can match the style with which you launched yourself into sports history. May this birthday be filled with laughter, joy—and cake slices flying as gracefully through the air as your famous javelins once did. Keep aiming high; you're forever our favorite record-breaking Olympian!
