Athlete Comments & Reviews

“Seeing the older athletes, I’m like, that’s what I want to do!”

“The inspiration watching those in their 70s/80s, still out there running, I’m like, that’s what I want to do. There’s just no giving up.”

“Life is all about learning and trying new things!”

“There’s never a moment to stop to learn. I still learn fron myself. It’s never too late to start to do something.”

“I’m positive about life again!”

I’m really proud of myself I was able to get myself back into a place in sport where I was, and be positive about life again. At the age of 62 right now, I’m so blessed. Beyond, I mean, I get emotional.
