Meet Angela Staab, the octogenarian dynamo whose running shoes have blazed a trail through the world of track and field, capturing 16 national titles after lacing up for the first time at the tender age of 57. Her zest for life and competition has not only shattered records but preconceptions about what it means to grow older with gusto. In our conversation, Angela opens up about her late bloom into athletic prowess fueled by her daughters' encouragement and a desire to live life to the fullest. Her tale is peppered with milestones, like that unforgettable marathon alongside Mickey Mouse, and brimming with wisdom on how to approach each day with vitality and verve.

Angela's narrative isn't simply one of physical triumph; it's a masterclass in the art of defying odds and the alchemy of motivation, grit, and unwavering support from those we hold dear. She shares insights into overcoming health hurdles such as hypothyroidism and her philosophy that incremental gains are the building blocks of monumental success. It's more than a story of running—it's a lesson in living, punctuated by a mantra that will have you rethinking the possibilities of your golden years: "It's not how old you are but how you are old." Join us for this episode that does more than just inspire—it invigorates the soul and prompts a renaissance of the spirit, demonstrating that true greatness knows no age limit.
