Exercise is good for you – all ages!

My aunt is 90, and my mum is 78. On Tuesday they both walked 9km. Yes folks you read that right… 9km. The key to achieving this is taking things at a slower pace.

We’ve taken the stairs slowly (where electronic options are not available – temples), and the wheelchair routes have proved to be very helpful.

We’ve even managed to get them walking around without their shoes – when absolutely required.

I hope we are just as good at their age.

    We can all take heart from this – and yes, I hope I am as good as they are at their ages.
