Ever wondered if it's too late to start something new? Meet Vickie Liddell, who proves that there's no expiration date on passion. Discover how, at the age of 63, Vickie transitioned from a busy life as a band director and mom of ten to an inspiring track and field athlete. In an episode filled with laughter and determination, Vickie recounts her journey from convincing her children's former AAU track coach to train her, to running alongside athletes young enough to be her grandchildren. Driven by her grandmother's timeless wisdom, "can't died before you were born," Vickie's story is a beacon of hope for anyone thinking it might be too late to chase their dreams.
As we journey through the world of senior athletics, Vickie takes us behind the scenes of the Senior Games, offering insights into the rigorous qualification process and the art of injury management. From unexpected detours to Oklahoma for last-minute qualifications to overcoming a hamstring injury, Vickie's resilience and adaptability shine through. She shares practical strategies for staying active despite setbacks, like swapping running shoes for a stationary bike and emphasizing the necessity of rest. Her approach to maintaining fitness is a lesson in patience and persistence, with a focus on finding balance rather than pushing limits.
We wrap up with lively discussions on setting goals and staying motivated, no matter your age. Vickie shares her experiences with forming relay teams across state lines, highlighting the camaraderie and vibrant community found in senior athletics. Her tale is not just about athletic achievement but about the relentless pursuit of passion and the power of mental resilience. As Vickie gears up for future competitions, her journey reminds us all that the path to our dreams is a marathon, not a sprint, and it’s never too late to lace up your sneakers and start running.
