What if aging wasn’t about slowing down - but about pushing your limits, chasing bold goals, and tapping into more energy than you ever thought possible?

In this episode of The Over 50 Health & Wellness Show, Kevin sits down with endurance athlete, writer, and barefoot adventurer Ken Posner. From Wall Street cubicles to mountain trails, Ken has discovered that vitality doesn’t fade with age - it expands when you challenge yourself.

We dive into:

How Ken went from “last kid picked in gym class” to running ultras and summiting mountains barefoot
Why exhaustion from the office pales in comparison to the energy gained through movement and nature
The role of fasting, simplicity, and minimalism in building strength and resilience after 50
How barefoot training restores balance, agility, and natural alignment - critical for staying strong as we age
Why pushing your body past “impossible” isn’t about punishment, but about empowerment

Ken’s story is a powerful reminder that the second half of life isn’t about decline - it’s about ignition. Whether you’re a weekend walker or dreaming of your first ultra, you’ll walk away inspired to stretch your own “rubber band” and reclaim the energy, confidence, and vitality that are your birthright.

👉 Don’t miss this inspiring conversation - it may just change the way you think about aging, fitness, and what’s possible after 50.
