- Boa forma
Over the last four years, I’ve interviewed around a hundred athletes from a wide variety of sports and fitness or athletic backgrounds. Everything from the lifelong athlete who has never known a life outside of elite sports, to women athletes in their 70s, 80s and 90s who wanted to play organized sports when they were younger, but never had the opportunity...to later in life athletes and weekend warriors.

Today, instead of interviewing a later in life athlete. I’m going to share actionable tips you can use to start your own later in life athletic journey.
These tips come from a combination of advice given by athletes I’ve interviewed for Seasoned Athlete along with my own experience as a later in life athlete.
We discuss:
Why you need to keep an open mind when it comes to the activities you do.
How finding an athletic community in the sport you love makes such a difference.
Why you need to be patient with your progress.
The fact that you won’t like your sport all of the time, and that is totally ok.
How you define what it means to be an athlete.
… and more!
