I have an up-to-date CentOS 7 system. When I tried to run the new version of Iron, I got

/usr/local/iron-linux-64-126.0.6400.0/chrome: /lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.25' not found (required by /usr/local/iron-linux-64-126.0.6400.0/chrome)

So I checked

$ lo /lib64/libc.so.6
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root 12 Jun 28 14:00 /lib64/libc.so.6 -> libc-2.17.so

I thought my system might be out-of-date, so I checked

No packages marked for update

Does this mean I will have to continue running the old version?

Thank you for the recommendation. I looked up Rocky Linux and found a helpful description on Wikipedia, emphasis added,

On December 8, 2020, Red Hat announced that they would discontinue development of CentOS, which had been a production-ready downstream version of RHEL, in favor of a newer upstream development variant of that operating system known as CentOS Stream. In response, Gregory Kurtzer, CEO of CIQ (a Rocky Linux support provider) and one of the original founders of CentOS, announced that he would start a new project to achieve the original goals of CentOS

In looking at https://rockylinux.org/download, I think I will try a Desktop/Workstation Live Image with MATE from https://dl.rockylinux.org/pub/rocky/9/l ... latest.iso to see how things work and look.
