Show Notes
Cathleen Calkins was always fairly athletic, but she was in her late fifties before she got into competitive weightlifting. She liked it and did it well, eventually working her way up to a state record in her age class.
My Better Half host Vanessa Finney caught up with her at a competition at Level 5 CrossFit gym in Sisters, Oregon.
