Irongran : how keeping fit taught me that growing older needn't mean slowing down [text (large print)]

Brocklesby, Edwina2018
Large Print
At the age of fifty, Eddie Brocklesby decided to run her first half-marathon. Until that point, her exercise regime had consisted of little more than chauffeuring her children to their own sports clubs. The race was the first of what was to become a hugely impressive trajectory of sporting accolades and successes. Soon afterward, she completed a marathon. Now seventy-five years old, the past twenty years have seen Eddie take part in marathons, triathlons and Ironman races across the globe, collecting many medals and awards along the way. In IRONGRAN, Eddie looks back on her life and explains just how she's managed to develop the energy to match the enthusiasm she's always had for an active lifestyle, and offers guidance about how to remain full of life in your later years.
