Welcome! and Thank you for listening.
Today I am honored to have Bob Becker from Ultrasportllc join me to discuss his recent Badwater 135 finish becoming the oldest finisher of the race at 77 years young. It is not his first record at Badwater. He set the record at age 70 for the first to complete the 146 mile course from the Badwater basin to the summit of Mt Whitney. He ran his first ultra at age 60!
Do you have to run 100 miles to stay healthy? Probably not. But we do know that successful aging requires a sense of purpose, social interactions, a positive mental attitude, and a lot of moving. Bob checks all of those boxes with a dose of humility and gratitude. I hope you enjoy and are inspired by this interview.
