ABOUT THE HOST
Robin Legat is what you would call a late-in-life athlete. She never played sports growing up and was always picked last for teams. That all changed in 2003 when, after recently moving to Los Angeles and in search of a social outlet, found an ad on Craigslist for an upstart roller derby league. She went to her first LA Derby Dolls practice and she was hooked. She played competitive roller derby for eleven years, through her fortieth birthday. She also found a new career as a fitness coach and trainer. Although she had retired from roller derby, she wasn't done being athletic, and soon found a new outlet for her competitive energy - obstacle course racing. She currently competes at Spartan Races and other similar obstacle races, with over 60 races and 5+ age group podiums under her belt since she started racing at age 41.
Robin is an Athletic Aging Coach on a mission to help women over 40 achieve bold athletic and fitness goals so they can gain overall confidence, overcome life’s obstacles and look, feel and live AGELESS. She is continually inspired and motivated by stories of other "Seasoned Athletes" making their mark in their chosen sports. This is what led her to create the Seasoned Athlete Podcast - so she can show real-world examples of people experiencing the far-reaching benefits that come with exploring your athletic potential at any age. Every day, Seasoned Athletes are constantly proving that age is more than just a number...it is an asset!

The Seasoned Athlete Podcast shares the stories of currently competing athletes from a wide range of sports who all share one common bond: they are all over age 40.
My goal through the conversations that take place on this podcast is to inspire you to believe in your own athletic potential and abilities, regardless of age. If even one person listening decides to run a race, try a new sport or sign up for a triathlon, then I know I am accomplishing my goal.
