Age Don't Mean A Thing

"I'm too old for this..." "Wait 'till you're older..." ​ Life - and sport in particular - is full of age cliches. When it comes to running it is perhaps easy to make a lot of assumptions about what we can and can't do at different ages.  ​ In this episode we speak to 84 year old record breaker Brian Ashwell about his running story and his unusual inspiration.  ​ We also visit different events that encourage young runners and speak to a family at We Run, and Park Run Ambassador Julie Thompson at the Junior Park Run event in Leicester.  ​ Anna-Marie provides some Mind over Matter food for thought and we ask Max Hartman about fitness considerations for young runners.
