455 Dean Culshaw: First Ironman at 70!

Dean Culshaw completed his first Ironman at Copenhagen at the age of 70, winning his age group by nearly an hour in the amazing time of 12.54. Dean joins us on the show to tell us all about the journey to his race at Copenhagen, but also shares his experience of continuing to train and compete as an athlete aging up. He shares some tips with us that have helped him stay in incredible shape long past the point most people have given up the dream of a physical challenge like an Ironman, and as he tells us - age is just a number. We hope this episode inspires you to a life of athletic longevity like Dean has :)
