Steve Perkins
Marathon Runner
This photo is the finish of my 8th marathon at age 65! It wasn’t my best time, but I finished! The last week of my training I pulled a calf muscle and thought I’d have to withdraw, but with some massage treatments and my determination I DID IT!
I DID IT!
There were many other marathons and many different injuries: plantar fasciitis, lower back pain, lateral knee pain and definitely some cervical spine issues…I was able to compete with the help of massage and physiotherapy. I always recovered during long trainings, and to date have finished 8 marathons and over 30 half-marathons.
