Walking to save my life


I TURN 65 on Saturday. That’s half a decade into senior citizenhood. Healthwise, I have been pretty lucky. Since my teens, I have been keeping fit and I played badminton, squash and jogged quite a bit, taking part in a couple of half marathons and runs.

In my 30s and 40s, I bought videotapes by well-known exercise gurus like Denise Austin and Kathy Smith and picked up yoga, kickboxing, and Latin dancing from them.
