Racing the Wind - Seventy-Seven and Still Playing Full-Court, Fast-Break Basketball: Achieving Athletic Longevity, a Gift That Keeps on (Hardcover)

Many of the players I play with have made the comment, "I don't know how you do it." I am going to try to explain what I have done "to do it." Our nation is facing a health crisis, and I believe athletics and physical conditioning are an important part of the solution.

I am seventy-seven years old and have been an athlete for almost all of those years. I am in excellent condition. I do not experience many aches and pains. I am still able to compete with much younger athletes. My overall health is excellent. I enjoy life. I love to compete. I believe all of these attributes are directly related to my athletics and physical conditioning. I have had to continually upgrade my game and my training.

My life has been greatly enhanced. I do not feel much different now mentally than I did when I was a young man. The gifts I have received through athletics and physical conditioning have not only helped me attain and enjoy good health; they have also helped me through some very difficult periods in my life as well. I will try to relate how my wife and I were helped in dealing with some of those experiences.

As the years have gone by, I have become increasingly aware that having good health is far more important than having money or owning nice things. Everything else pales into obscurity when compared with your health.

This book will be of value to men and women who are interested in their health and well-being over the course of their lives.
