FritsMB Mansvelt Beck Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Mr. Brady, you may be interested in a documentary movie, called “Herbstgold†(autumn gold). It follows the training of several 90+ athletes (male and female), mostly olympians from the 30’s (?), getting ready for the World Athletics Masters in 2009 in Lahti, Finland. It is not inspirational in the sense of “I should do that tooâ€; none of us can be sure of becoming that old. It was the spirit of these very old athletes that touched me. They are still driven to use their limited physical abilities to the maximum possible (i.e. to set an age record). You can find a trailer of the movie on youtube; here is the link:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m-dfC0PwqhYThe movie itself may be available in your favorite videotheque.
