Kelly Majdan is an author, speaker, and Wellness Advisor who is passionate about helping midlife weekend warriors retain their health so they can continue to play.

She is the best-selling author of the book titled “Lessons from the Obstacle Course: Five Strategies to Conquer the Muddy Fields of Life.” By following her own wellness strategy Kelly has enabled herself and her husband, both over 50, to continue to participate in obstacle course competitions every year with their two children.

As soon-to-be empty nesters, Kelly and her husband are looking forward to continuing to challenge themselves and their fitness journey in the next chapter of their lives, and to live life to the fullest.

Kelly shares her personal perspective regarding aging, including her firm belief that none of us are ever “too old” to challenge ourselves and achieve a higher level of fitness than they ever imagined, simply by getting out of our comfort zone and trying new things.

She describes the exhilarating experience of playing and crawling in the mud, the camaraderie that comes along with meeting people who share a passion with you, the positive reinforcement between competitors, and how you can discover your inner warrior in the mud. You just have to start looking for it.

Kelly also explains the importance of fighting for your health, being your own health advocate, the power of self-care and self-awareness, and most importantly why you’re not too old to try new things and to get out of your comfort zone.
