Monday Morning Motivation – growing old (dis)gracefully

Goro, a 98-year-old, growing old (dis)gracefully

Growing old doesn’t have to mean giving up. Check out this amazing documentary (The Optimists) about some older ladies who play volleyball:

The Optimists is about volleyball players who are growing old. This is a still from the film.

Hi, I'm Tamsyn!

Triathlete | Blogger | Running Coach & Fitness Instructor

As an overweight couch potato, I decided to turn my life around. I lost over 33lbs/15kg and now love keeping fit and healthy. In February 2013, I set myself a challenge to complete an iron-distance triathlon (2.4 mile/3.8k swim; 112 mile/180k bike; 26.2 mile/42.2k run).

Since starting my triathlon journey, I’ve:

learnt to swim and completed a 17.5km sea swim

bought my first road bike and cycled across Japan

run six marathons.

had a baby.

I’ve not completed an Ironman yet… but I’m getting there.
