"Sometimes we underestimate ourselves" - competitive after 50

"Sometimes we underestimate ourselves" - competitive after 50

This year for International Women’s Day, I wanted to profile three women runners who are challenging perceptions of ageing. Katie is the woman behind the RunYoung50 blog, and is blazing a trail for older track athletes. Angela is regularly winning V60 top spot and GFA (good for age) places in road and trail races after being told she’d never run again. And Jane is a keen marathoner, and England Masters Marathon team member for 2020. All three women discovered running in their 40s.
