MEETING THE CHALLENGE: Senior Athletes Join in Olympic Competition

SYNOPSIS
Why do we assume that getting older necessarily means losing stamina and energy?
In the film, "MEETING the CHALLENGE Senior Athletes Join in Olympic Competition" we meet people in their 70's, 80's, 90's who are becoming stronger and more active, rather than less, as the years go by. The story follows a 74 year old man who lives and works in Louisville, and has won more 200 Senior Olympic medals. We watch as he and other seniors discover that their bodies are capable of learning new skills while they compete in a full spectrum of Olympic sports.
