Im a former competitive long distance runner who now trains as a sprinter and hurdler in my late 60s. I am now stronger healthier and more pain free than in my 20s. Best athletic move i ever made.

I am 45. I work 3pm to 11pm. I get home around 12. I literally just did like 3 to 5max sprinits down my block at 12:30 at night. No one is hardly up, the streets are empty.. I only need about 15min max anyways. About 3 to 5 40yrd dashes. Sometimes after work I just feel this jolt of energy that needs to be unleashed.

I sprint when I feel tired, I sprint when Im angry (some of my best runs come when Im angry) and sometimes I run just because I enjoy it very much. Nothing better then feeling fast, hearing the wind flowing over your ears, feeling healthy and well. Nothing beats this... nothing!

I completely agree. I am 73 years old, I am a doctor and still working. I restarted my physical activities after I turned 68. I'm a sprinter and I do 100 and 200 dash. In the world master competition/2024 I achieved my PB with 13.54 (new Brazilian record category M-70).
I feel exactly as the author of this article says, very well physically, neurologically and cardiovascularly. As a doctor and Master Athlete, I recommend regular exercise and, if possible, interspersed with thermogenic training to keep the body in perfect balance.

I almost forgot how much i loved to sprint, that feeling of almost flying, thats so motivating, can't wait to start sprinting again!

I'm from the UK and have gotta say - you Americans are so good at all this stuff. You're so dynamic and really do lead the way in so many fields. Thanks for the continued inspiration.

I've sprinted since July of 2022. I'm 68 now. I do have to roll into the sprints, though. I sprint 3x a week and also have a little kettle bell routine that I do for my upper body. You are right!! Sprinting is the BEST!!

Excellent video and spot on. I was a sprinter, went to two Olympics for bobsleigh pushing and am now 43. What has shocked me (and i have an exercise science degree so its saying something) is that im literally just as fast and strong. I've simply never stopped. Im more aware of the risk of muscle tears but thats because i have no reason to be pushing too far. If i could give the very best options that gives all the benefits but reduces injury risk I'd say 1. Hill sprints 2. Sand sprints 3. Stair sprints. Doing a mix as well as flat is amazing.

I need to get back into it. I use to sprint back in high school in the 90s. This video gives me motivation

I'm now 67 and a former competitive triathlete and a U.S. Recon Marine vet. who was blessed with pretty good foot speed (4.5 sec 40 yd in H.S.). Today both my knees are bone on bone so my days of distance running are over...but I have found I can do very low mileage of about 1/2 mile to some days 1 mile and include uphill sprints at the end of my short runs (typically 3 or 4 x 100 yards) and my knees seem to love it, almost no more pain since I stopped trying to do 3 miles and went to uphill sprints. give it a try for anyone with bad knees.

This video inspired me to try sprinting at the age of 52 and perimenopausal. I was sore for a week but after the second try, recovery was better. Just need a good warm up and stretch. Thank you for posting this

This is one of the BEST videos I've seen on YouTube, ever. And I've seen it all let me tell you!

Informational, motivational, important!

[erud]

Love your content! Your vids inspired me to start sprinting in my 40's when I was in poor shape and I've never sprinted before. I was a very slow runner as a child which always made me think I can't sprint. I worked myself up to a 15second 100 meter using the drills in your vids! Now I'm doing 200 meters. I'm still slow but I've got a long way to go. Keep up the great videos!

I started sprinting consistently a year ago... it took quite a while before I was able to sprint without straining a major leg muscle... I'm 62 and running like a cheetah three times a week... Best workout ever, my goal is to keep on running til I drop ....

My whole life changed when we had to put my grandfather into a retirement home. We started visiting him often and while my grandpa himself isn't that frail given his age, the sight of so many elderly people barely capable of moving their limbs, speaking, grasping for air at as little as standing up, their grip so weak they struggle to open a bottle... That sight would (or should) be eye-opening for everyone younger zhan those people - be it 20 or 60. I know I'll never be the same since then and for better.

Motivating story brother. I had Spinal Surgery from playing American Football. I was in a wheelchair for a week, and had to learn to walk again > now I train Kickboxing & Martial Arts everyday for the past 17 years. I wake-up with 100 push-Ups. Never stop. Never give up. Gotta have Relentless Discipline. oNe LovE from NYC
