Blog 15:Overcoming odds

I was tired of reading about depressing storys (all the books this year for english) so i wanted to read something uplifting about somebody doing something extrordonary. A 101 year old man was called the oldest marathon runner last april. This made me happy because it made me think about how old i can survive, and that people can stay interesting when they get older, they all dont have to be the typicall grandparent.
