It Has Nothing to do With Age

“It Has Nothing To Do With Age?” is the first book to provide in rich detail how to think “outside the box” by providing concrete examples of how older individuals push their physical, mental, and emotional limits to new frontiers and why they do it. Its focus is on individuals who are optimistic, competitive, and perform at unfathomable levels in grueling events. The interesting stories in this book demonstrate their evolution and shift to a higher and more proficient level of physical and mental functioning as well as to their unselfish societal contributions.

The book’s unique content is based on the authors journey along with seven in-depth interviews with outstanding senior athletes in sporting events that include the Tevis Cup 100 mile horse race, the Western States 100 mile ultra run, the Swanton Pacific 100 mile ride and tie, the Dipsea, the Hawaiian Ironman, the Molokai to Oahu Outrigger canoe race, and national and international rowing.
