Episode Synopsis

"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.
