What if you discovered a new passion at the age of 57 that challenged your physical capabilities and allowed you to compete on a national level? Madonna Hannah, a former fashion marketing teacher, AARP writer, and an inspiring senior athlete started her running journey late and since then has paved her way to the National Senior Games. In this riveting tale of grit and resilience, Madonna shares her inspiring journey of overcoming bullying, racial prejudice, and segregation in school and how she used these experiences to fuel a career dedicated to developing anti-bullying programs. 

Madonna’s dedication didn’t stop as she transitioned into retirement, and her triumphant entry into the world of running at a mature age has been nothing short of remarkable. From overcoming a painful Achilles injury to supporting her husband in his fight against cancer, Madonna proved her doubters wrong and achieved success in the senior games. You'll be captivated as she narrates her unique training methods, her awe-inspiring journey with her millennial coach, and the unexpected thrill of being asked to run in a four by 100 relay just 15 minutes before the race.

As we draw our conversation to a close, we reflect on Madonna's inspiring journey and her encouraging words on embracing change as an opportunity to learn something new. Her determination to improve her 50-meter time by 10 seconds in 12 years and her ranking as the fifth in the 50 and 100-meter sprints nationally is a testament to her indomitable spirit. Her story embodies the power of living agelessly, sharing wisdom, and building self-esteem. So, tune in and let Madonna inspire you to persevere, grow, and pay it forward.
