Athlete Comments & Reviews

“The older athletes are so inspiring!”

“Athletics is really important in daily life, to see older people running, my age, and they are still competing very strongly is very encouraging.”

“I compete to be healthy, inspired by the older athletes”

“The first year I competed in the Swiss Masters Athletics, the guys that were 60 – 65 – 70 years old, they were my inspiration. I switched my mind to say: I still compete but I want to be healthy the rest of my life. They are the models.”

“Learning a new sport is exciting!”

“There are people that say: why you keep doing that, why are you doing that at your age? Well, because we still can and it is never too late to start and learn new things. It’s exciting!”
