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.

“I participate because I still can!”

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

“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.”
