Age should never be a barrier to ANY goal you choose to work towards.
In 2012 I was very proud to be selected as an London 2012 Olympic Torch bearer, I was lucky to meet many other torch bearers, one sticks in my mind – an amazing lady, well over 80, decided to raise money for her local village by completing a Marathon while doing the re-hab following double knee replacement surgery! She set out a circuit in the village hall, measured it and walked every day – gradually doing more miles as she regained her mobility and strength.
After months of walking as far as she could everyday, she completed her marathon!
How fantastic? Absolutely amazing… Lesson – NEVER let your age hold you back….
Stay Active, Stay Mobile, Stay Independent
