How I Won the National Senior Olympics Without a Coach

from Your Lot and Parcel · host Benjamin Diaz/John Hurd, Author, 91-Year-Old Athlete

 My guest began a self-directed program of training in the streets, and at 61 began a "hobby" of running up and down the oval track as a sprinter. As he gradually progressed, he continued training year-round and had some decent successes and awards.In 2015 John had a book published about his life in general and experiences in the world of track and field titled "Johnny Run Lately."One of the reasons John has continued, well after his retirement in 2000 from the business and academic world, is the people who frequently tell him they were encouraged to get off the couch and become more involved in taking care of the body they were issued. He hopes that the reader of this book will also be encouraged to find an activity that they enjoy, and give it a go. https://www.amazon.com/Sprint-Gold-National-Olympics-Without/dp/1647195926#:~:text=A%20Sprint%20to%20The%20Gold,9781647195922%3A%20Amazon.com%3A%20Bookshttp://www.yourlotandparcel.orgSupport the show
