This text argues that no longer is anyone too old to compete in sporting activities. It aims to present the formula and the philosophy to enable the older athlete, man or woman, elite athlete or social competitor to aim for new goals in sporting endeavour.
One of the most significant evolutions in modern sport has been the emergence of world-class performances by master athletes. Over a wide range of sport - from golf to marathons and ironman triathlons, from swimming to football, from rowing to track & field - athletes who, in the past, would have stopped their activities in their thirties or younger, now carry on. No longer is anyone too old to compete and a whole new competitive area has opened up for sportspeople ranging in age up to their seventies.

The New Zealander Arthur Lydiard was the most successful trainer of middle and long distance running in the world. He coached runners from different countries such as Peter Snell (3 times gold) or Lasse Viren, who reached 4 times gold. In the 50s and 60s Arthur Lydiard not only revolutionized the middle and long distance training but parallel to this development he may be considered as one of the founders of the jogging-movement.
