If you've ever wondered if you're too old or it's too late to get started on a fitness regimen, check out this story - a 101 year old man is training for his 'last' marathon (he ran one last year at 100, didn't start running marathons until he was 89...this will be his 9th). He runs 4 hours a day to "inspire the masses" - I've gotta say I'm pretty inspired and will think of him the next time I'm coming up with excuses not to go to the gym.

Just realized the thread title is messed up - should be 'It's never too late to get started'. Last time I laugh at other people's title typos :blushing:0
