Running With A Purpose

I won't be competing in the Tugaloo Triathlon next month.  I am too old.  I did complete a sprint level triathlon at age 50 with the encouragement of close friends, but I haven't completed another one since.  I'm just too old (55) - or maybe not.  Sister Madonna Buder began running for sport at age 48 and then completed her first Ironman triathlon at age 55.  She now holds the world record for the oldest person, man or woman, to complete an Ironman triathlon - at age 82.  She runs to encourage people to pursue their passions, develop their gifts and acknowledge that everything we have comes as a gift from our creator.  Click here to meet Madonna.
