Ageless Athletes: Lyn and Marlene's Secrets to Sprinting Success in Your 70s
Summary of Podcast #25 Ageless Athletes: Lyn and Marlene's Secrets to Sprinting Success in Your 70s
In the latest D8 Training Podcast, Ann-Marie Antic chats with two amazing women, Lyn Peake and Marlene Norton-Baker, who are in their 70s and still crushing it on the track and in the gym! These two are sprinting, lifting weights, and setting records—Lyn even broke 18 Australian records in one year! 🤯
Age? Just a Number!
A lot of people think getting older means slowing down, but Lyn and Marlene prove that’s not true. They’ve raced hundreds of times and are showing no signs of stopping. More than the medals and records, they love the friendships they’ve made and the fun of pushing their limits.
The Secret? Mindset Matters!
So, what’s their secret?
Mindset! Lyn believes age is just in your head. “It’s all about how you think,” she says. Marlene agrees, adding, “You just have to start!” Whether you’re 10, 30, or 70, it’s never too late to try something new.
Training Together Makes a Difference
They also talk about how training with a friend makes a huge difference. Having a workout buddy keeps them motivated, helps them improve, and makes exercise way more fun. Plus, they stay strong by eating well, staying hydrated, and doing strength training at D8 Training —something they say is super important for any athlete, no matter their age.
Big Competitions Ahead!
Right now, Lyn and Marlene are getting ready for their next big races, including the
Australian Nationals and the World Games in South Korea. Their message is simple: if you stay committed,
you can achieve amazing things—at any age!
