Seasoned Athlete

In this episode, we take the Seasoned Athlete show on the road to San Diego to attend the San Diego Senior Games Fitness Competition. The San Diego Senior Games is a multi-sport competition taking place at various locations throughout the city, and is open to competitors over age 50. The fitness competition was held at a gym called Fitness Quest 10, and consisted of 10 different events designed to test strength, endurance, speed, power, cardiovascular fitness and more. The people competing in this event were mostly regular folks. Many are members at Fitness Quest 10. Some drove down from other cities to participate in a competition that they felt was designed and put on FOR them. We grabbed short interviews with six athletes who were competing that day, all of whom were over age 60. They had different backgrounds, different stories and different reasons for being there.
