Synopsis
Five silver-haired athletes, age 82 and up, show what it takes to go for the gold in one's golden years. Ninety-three-year-old Herbert Liedtke can still sprint 100 metres in record time, and Isle Pleuger, age 85, can shotput like a man almost half his age. But the weakening control over life off the track and field are hurdles unique to senior athletes, who must race not only against the track clock but against time itself.
