Sinopsis

In Improving With Age Professor Risteárd Mulcahy explores how exercise is increasingly important as we grow older. His account of his own involvement in running, cycling and exercising is both practical, inspiring and amusing. This part memoir part practical guide is organized into three sections covering the importance of exercise, practical advice on exercise and most candidly the author's own experience with fitness in later life - he started jogging at fifty-one and ran his first marathon at sixty-one.
