Inhaltsangabe

The inspiring true story of Fauja Singh, the oldest person to ever run a marathon.

Fauja did not listen and Fauja did not stop.
He knew it was time for him to take a step in a new direction...

When Fauja Singh was born in a village in Punjab, his legs were so weak that no one thought he would walk. But Fauja was determined - and he amazed the world with what he could do. At 81, Fauja entered his first race. Then he went on to break records all around the world and became the first person over 100 to complete a marathon.

With inspiring text by Simran Jeet Singh and beautiful illustrations by Baljinder Kaur, the true story of Fauja Singh shows us that anything is possible.
