Newsweek shines spotlight on Senior Olympic trackos
Masters tracksters are featured this week in a sidebar story in Newsweek about the need to exercise when you’re older. Old news to us. Good reminder for others. The cover story is about how working out regularly makes you smarter. That stands to reason. Only dummies fail to exercise. The track article describes how an M50 sprinter/jumper named Steve Chugg saw his weight balloon to 240 as a sales executive, “indulging in hefty expense-account meals and finding no time to work them off between long-haul flights and meetings.” Then he learned he had type 2 diabetes. Time to hit the track. Best of luck, Steverino!
