❝I want a beach body,’ I told him. ‘There are beautiful seventy-year-old girls out there, and I’d like to turn their heads.❞
❝To understand this, we must recognise that work, health and wellbeing are closely and powerfully linked

retirement is little more than an incubator for illness and health problems.

Your teenage years are in the distant past, but at sixty-five you face another period of soul-searching, experimentation and boundary testing as you get to grips with your new place in life. Retirement is responsible here.❝
Dr Charles Eugster, 1919-2017

LONDON, 27th APRIL 2017 - Dr Charles Eugster, the best-selling author and record-breaking athlete, has died in London at the age of 97. His publicist confirmed he passed away Wednesday evening from complications following heart failure.

He died the same week I finished reading the legacy book he left to the world. Charles has had an incredibly busy life until the very last days as he was readying for the World Masters Indoor Championships in South Korea.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading the first part of the book where he wittingly comes back over his long life, then came the many insightful advices on good aging from where the above quotes are coming. I am still too young for the last part but I might come back to it in a few decades.
