‘It’s never too late’: The Running Granny Angela White on ultra running & healthy ageing

<p>The Outdoors Fix is a podcast to inspire you to make the outdoors a bigger part of your life. It’s hosted by Liv Bolton.</p>

<p>This episode takes Liv Bolton to the beautiful Howgill fells in Cumbria to walk with Angela White, better known as the Running Granny. Angela is a retired doctor and surgeon and now an ultra runner and personal trainer. </p>

<p>Over the past 15 years, she’s taken on some extraordinary challenges: 100-mile races, 24-hour mountain challenges, and even a Guinness World Record for running 875 miles from John O’Groats to Land’s End.</p>

<p>And the remarkable thing? She only started running at the age of 53.</p>

<p>She’s now trying to spread the message about the importance of staying active throughout life so you can live healthier for longer.</p>

<p>Liv joined Angela for a rather steep hike (!) to hear her thoughts on healthy ageing, but also how the outdoors and her running challenges have helped her through some incredibly tough times.</p>

<p>We hope you enjoy the conversation — and a big thank you to Angela!</p>
