Beginning at Bartlett High School early Sunday morning, the youngest competitor was 9 years old, while the oldest, Millie Spezialy, was 88.<00:19:19> “I feel better,” said Spezialy after finishing. “About two years ago, I got into my zen spot and relaxed, and I rest before and and I just kind of flow with it as I go.”This was Spezialy’s 32nd time competing in the GNT, one of six to compete more than 30 times. Two of those six, Diane Barnett and Idamarie Piccard, have competed in the GNT every year since it’s inception 41 years ago.
