Is it possible to defy age in sports like running?

Yes,I am 36 years of age and was a good sprinter in my school and college days.But I never ran even a mile in my teens or adolescence.But I started training for the first marathon of my life and within 4 months of training I was able to run a mile in 6 minutes and now I am running on an average 60 miles per week for the past two months though I faced a lot of problems like left knee pain for a couple of weeks,shin splints,etc.
From this is it right to believe that you can defy age in sports and might be still capable of making or chasing records even at ages where many athletes either retire or become slow or reach the peaks in their career?
