INDIANAPOLIS -- 97-year-old Wanda Lancaster was livin' the dream on Saturday.

She and 25 of her friends completed the Bubble Run 5K at the Indiana State Fairgrounds.

If you're not familiar with a Bubble Run, you wear a white t-shirt and go through 'foam bogs' which cover you head-to-toe in bubbles.

Wanda says she always wanted to compete in a marathon, but never thought she'd be able to do it at her age.

While it may not have been a marathon, Wanda says it was the best day ever!
