100 Year old man completes Toronto Marathon

I've been meaning to post this incredibly inspiring story of a man named Fauja Singh, 100 years old, who completed the Toronto Marathon a couple of weeks ago. Singh, a British Citizen, is the first centurian to ever run this distance, completing the race in 8 hours and 11 minutes.

This is Singh's eighth marathon.

His Secret? Apparently it's a diet of mainly tea, toast and curry.

This story reminded me how powerful one's determination and willpower can be when it comes to accomplishing a goal.

Hopefully it helps inspire you to run your goal distance!
