Time for some inspiration. Last year there was quite a bit of media coverage about one Richard Morgan, a 93 year old Irish man who is a champion indoor rower. Scientists analyzed Mr. Morgan and found him to have the cardio-respiratory fitness of a man half his age. The reason this is so amazing is that Mr. Morgan didn’t take up any exercise at all until age 73, after he retired from his career as a baker. And while it’s impossible to ever draw broad medical conclusions based on one-single case, his story certainly lends credibility to the idea that it is never too late to start getting into better shape.
