Impossible Dreamers: Athletes older than 65 take the national and world stage

I like to stay motivated by watching older athletes. As I’m healing from this broken ankle, I need LOTS of motivation. About every other day I feel like giving up. Can you relate??

My dear friend and Lean In Together MSP colleague Linda Brandt called me a few days ago to tell me about a beautiful movie called Impossible Dreamers. She had a copy of the DVD she got from the library and she was willing to drop it (and a DVD player) off at my house so I could watch it. I turned her down, as I rarely watch movies (and just about zero television or Netflix for that matter, just no time!).

Then, I decided to take a look.

I watched this trailer:

WOW WOW and WOW!!!

It’s a powerful, inspirational, tear-jerking documentary!!! It features athletes ages 60 to 94 doing amazing, beautiful athletic feats in everything from yoga, to swimming, to running, to tennis, to race-walking, to golf and weight-lifting. It features women and men and just plain old WOW.

I had to tell all of you about this amazing movie. I rented it on iTunes and I’m sure it’s available anywhere you can get movies. Including the library! If you need a bit of inspiration, get this movie and get moving!

And remember, you are worth it. You are beautiful and strong and moving your amazing body is priceless.

With love always,

Mari
