Ultramarathons Have No Age Limit

What if the limits we believe about age… just aren’t real?
In this episode of Runnah, I sit down with Mary — an over-60-year-old ultramarathon runner who continues to show up, lace up, and do big, bold things long after most people think they’re supposed to slow down.
Mary isn’t chasing podiums. She’s chasing possibility.
We talk about:
• How she got into ultrarunning later in life

• What training looks like at over 60

• How she handles recovery and setbacks

• The mindset that keeps her moving forward

• What she wants younger runners to understand about longevity

This conversation isn’t about pretending age doesn’t exist. It’s about redefining what it means. Strength doesn’t expire. Grit doesn’t age out. And big goals aren’t reserved for the young.
Whether you’re 29, 49, or 79 — this episode will challenge the story you’re telling yourself about what’s possible.
If you’ve ever thought, “Maybe it’s too late,” Mary is living proof that it isn’t.
