After spending the past four years powerlifting and bodybuilding I found myself wondering if I could (turning 60 soon and no serious running in 30 years) run a couple miles in an emergency. So I started jogging and doing sprint intervals on an indoor track and soon I could knock out a 10 minute mile and 24 minute two mile!
I thought, there really is no reason why a 60 year old should not be able to do the same physical tasks that he did in his 20s, albeit a tad slower.
And just like that, I’m training for a Spartan Race!
