Athlete Comments & Reviews

“I participate because I still can!”

“People say; why are you doing it, and I say: “because I can!””

“Everybody cheers for each other!”

“I loved the mood of everybody cheering for everyone, like I was watching in the stands the M70 triple jump and everybody was cheering whatever the nationality, whatever the performance and I really like that about the Masters movement. It doesn’t matter.”

“A sport festival like the Olympics, open to everyone!”

“My Masters team family is amazing. After being a full time athlete when I was younger and then retiring and then coming back into it. It was amazing. This was my Olympics!”
