Athlete Comments & Reviews
“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.
“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.”
“I love to keep going!”
“I have more time now with my work to do sport again, it’s the possibility to keep doing sport in a competitive way.”
