While conventional wisdom suggests runners may peak as early as in their 20s, many amateur and elite runners alike are running their best well into their 30s, 40s, and beyond.

Some of these high-performing athletes may not even start running until later in life but manage to perform at incredible levels.

These athletes are proof that you can find success at any age and today’s show is going to explore how runners of all ages and experience levels can find success at running.

This one is for any runners out there, whether you’re a competitive high-school athlete or retired and just taking up running for the first time. We’ll go deep into what leads to long-term success in the sport with topics including:

Is there a peak age for running?
How age affects running, including the ways your training should change over time
Tips for masters athletes to perform their best
Can you run fast while taking up running at a later age?

And most importantly, we’ll cover how you can maximize your potential no matter where you are in your running journey. So let’s get into it!
