50k/day in 50 states in 50 days
What if age were just a number―not a limit? At 73 years young, Ron du Preez is racing against more than time; he's racing against the notion that aging means slowing down to a crawl. In an extraordinary journey across 50 states in 50 days, covering 50 kilometers (i.e., 31.07 miles) in each state in the USA, he is setting an example, especially for seniors: it's never too late to move, to push boundaries, and to inspire. Having done 7 marathons in 7 countries in 7 days, he's proof that determination knows no age. Join us on this amazing mission to remind old and young that life is measured by movement―one step at a time.
“Take care fof your body.
It’s the only place you have to live.”
— Jim Rohn
