101-year-old Fauja Singh Runs the London Marathon - Horizon: Eat, Fast and Live Longer - BBC

[@pally9681]

I'm running this 2019 London marathon and what a inspiration he is. True Sikh legend.

[@greomgh]

Absolutely amazing. Look up this guy on wikipedia- he can run 100 meters in 23.4 seconds - THAT'S A SPRINT! This is a 100 year old guy who can sprint! And he holds almost every single world record for 100 year olds running. How long will he live? 120? Is he immortal?

[@juha9703]

He probably eats vegan diet

[@hunter-speexz]

he looks like 75-85 years old

My grandpa used to walk 10km a day until he had a fracture of the hip in a fall at 97 years. He passed away 3 months later:( Also was an avid gardener and reader, had better memory than his kids and grand kids till his dying day. Maybe you got to have a bit of luck along with the discipline eh?

[@vishavjitsingh5709]

True, luck or in other words God decide how much you’ll have to live

[@j.r.5130]

RIP. Discipline is crucial for health and health is crucial for longevity. Thanks for sharing.

[@chengalvalavenkata2401]

True, luck matters. Also, quality of life matters as much as quantity (sometimes more). The fact that he was having a highly active life and retaining full function till he fell is impressive. Even after he fell, he retained excellent cognitive abilities even close to his health.

[@dalveenasidhu5832]

There was a marathon held in Malaysia for Sikhs and Fauja Singh was there. He gave such an amazing speech. He truly is an inspiration.

[@harsimranjitsingh2505]

What are the particulars of his fasts? Does it employ drinking water or soup, and how many days does it last? I want to try it myself. I don't wanna run at 101, though. I wanna still be skateboarding.

I used to volunteer doing physical labour and I was amazed at people in their 60s still working while I was exhausted.. now I realize that stamina as long as you keep active, general stamina may is one of the things that doesn't decrease with age, at least greatly, which is really inspiring and encouraging

I Know I Remember In 2019 When He Was 108 And Even Then I Was Amazed But I Never thought that At 112 He Would Still Be Alive He's The Sikh Superman!

A proud marathonor. A real hero. 26 miles a great achievement. The best thing he got in his hand an England's flag but not an indian. That's his loyalty towards a county which gave him respect shelter,job ,social security and all. ..a proud Atheist.

[@gursimarsingh5505]

Guru Nanak says the Ego greed lust attachment and pride are the bricks of a wall, which keep us away, and unaware of the presence of the truth, the almighty god. Your comment clearly shows that you have pride, which keeps you away from realizing the truth of God. Now you would say where is god? But I find this question ridiculous, it's like a fish in the ocean saying where is the water that everybody keeps talking about? So you should realize the truth of the waheguru akalpurakh

I saw him walking (although at a brisk pace) more than running, but still really impressive to be able to walk quickly 26 miles at an age of 101. Most people can't walk that much even at the age of 20-30.

[@Travelwithme777]

I love this dude truly amazing

[@sharonlarsen8949]

what they don't mention is that he is also a plant based diet (a strict vegetarian diet), that is higher in nutrients, and antioxidants compared to a western diet.

[@markusjohnson6558]

I read that in youth a diet that incorporates a lot of protein is the healthiest but when you hit about sixty you should go vegan because your body finds it easier to break down the food that you're eating.

[@ronki23]

One thing I see is that they can't give him a Guiness World Record because he has no birth certificate but instead a passport; weren't the rules for passports changed since Mr Singh got his first British passport? When he first applied couldn't he have 'made up' a birthday because they didn't keep records then. Couldn't they just backtrack by looking at his children's ages? They should be in their 70s if not 80s; his Grandchildren would be in their 40s or 50s, Great Grandchildren in their 20s or 30s. Hopefully Great-Great-Grandchildren soon

[@Athenian888]

[@2koolken]

i'm just being reasonable here, but i never would have thought a 101 year old would run a marathon! that's largely to blame with my society! do you know how many around 60+ year olds i have known about are in either wheel chairs or complain about their health or can barely get out of a chair and this guy is almost twice their age
