Her husband died and she says she's alone, though she's lost friends, and she says she's lonely, she'll never sit on the couch and feel sorry for herself. I love this woman.
Whatever makes you happy! My great grandmother lived to be 107. She had lots of husbands. Drank lots of beer. Ate lots of hostess snack cakes. Lived alone in a building with no elevator... Full of sass! Always on the go.
Training for my 1st marathon, 25 days left. She is beyond inspiring. I'm running for a charity but this woman she's running to the love of life. Go Ginette!
She possess a very valuable trait, one of the most important for Humanity: Resilence; pure Grit! SHE HAS MUCH TO TEACH AND REVEAL🥰🥰🥰What a beautiful Human, my gawd😫
She’s amazing I’ll remember you when I have no motivation for running. I enjoy running and always ask myself ... I wonder how many more years can I keep on running? I am in my 40s. So you are and will be my inspiration for the next 40 years if God allows. Thank you for your amazing example! God bless you more.
This lady inspires me. I hear all these 30 and 40 somethings calling themselves old. This lady actually loves being the oldest. I worked with someone who at 24 complained that one weekend while out with her friends, she was the oldest among them and how sad it was. Younger people can be really dumb.
lovelyvegan princess a vegan shouldn’t be calling people dumb. Old is relative and some young people are disabled and have the bone structure of those that are 80. Acting young doesn’t change things. It’s dumb to judge anyone. But yes living it up is good at any age. You’re only as old as you feel
I'm 28 and started to realise how much of my 20s I've wasted caring about what others think. I live for me now. Do what makes you happy whilst you have the chance!
I was unsure about running my first half marathon next year and now I am totally inspired by this amazing woman and I'm going to try complete it! #inspirational
She is inspiring!!! I just started running again. It's a process because I have plantar fasciitis but I'm working up to being able to run a 5k in 2020. I hope to be as joyful as her when I am older. 😊
I've been running depressed for 2 years and it didn't help at all, then fortunately everything passed, I still keep running but I wish that was the cure for depression... Of course it helps to make you feel better but depression is a thing way more serious than something that could be fixed with running imo
Love her! I feel the same. If I run under 10 miles when I go out for a run (3-5 times a week), it doesn’t feel right. I also need hills too or it’s just not challenging. Now I need to get faster. I’m not very fast, but I can go 31 miles and feel great. I love the trail races! Hope I’m running if I’m still alive at her age.
My Dad power walked to the hotel for a beer or three at 5pm every day ( a 30 minute walk there & back ) at 90 he looked 65 and his hair never went grey.
Keep running 🏃🏻♀️. You’re inspiration for me. I love it that you’re running every day. Wow 😲 big achievement to complete the marathon for sooo many years. 👍👏🌹🥰
Ugh--I feel for you! I had to quit because of my knees, too. Realized my emotional coping skills were s**t because I'd always just relied on running. Here's to finding something else that we love!! :-)
OMG, i LOVE her spirit. "I love the applause because Ive earnt it". You certainly have and thank you for putting me to shame, because of you, I might just put on but sneakers too.
I just started ultra running last year at 42 when I met a volunteer at a trail race. He ran his first ultra in his late 60s, and was still doing them in his 70s. He motivated me to search TH-cam, and the rest is history!
As a francophone living mostly in english, I must say I HAVE to take note of how she uses french words in her speech and yet is fully understood by anglophones. To be honest, I find that charming as all heck. Je commence dès maintenant! I am starting now!
She needs to contact Julia Hawkings or Ida (forgot her surname). Julia and Ida are both 103, there are many senior runners doing marathons. I think they would enjoy each others company
my sweet granny passed away two years ago + change. Of course, nobody could replace her, but I still wanna adopt Ginette as my new granny if she'd let me
Her husband died and she says she's alone, though she's lost friends, and she says she's lonely, she'll never sit on the couch and feel sorry for herself. I love this woman.
"if grandma can do it then"...CRASHES INTO GRANDMA🤦🏻♀️ I think this woman is amazing and vibrant! I love her attitude.
Yah, that young woman almost knocks her over. 😒
That got me mad. Runs into her. Idiot.
@@lulolancy That got me mad too. She almost killed Grandma due to her carelessness!! 😞 Watch where you're going next time, clumsy mumsy!

“Gonna go have a croissant and a cappuccino.” So cute! Bless her heart
The basic necessities of life
She can eat anything she wants......she burns it all up, by running.
I love her so much.
I need her energy! I hate running. Seeing this I have no excuses now.
Start now! Begin to run for a few meters and then walk again repeat it for half an hour. It's an easy start. You are going to feel amazing.
There is tiny but dramatic difference between her interview and your statement. She do what she like and you do what you don't like)
....I always hated running! But now I'm thinking I should give it a try!
I hate running. After three half marathons I realized that I just didn’t like it. I took up pole dancing instead and I’m much happier.
Do something you LIKE and YOU might still be doing it at 86! There are very old people who do gymnastics, weight lifting, swimming...
Whatever makes you happy! My great grandmother lived to be 107. She had lots of husbands. Drank lots of beer. Ate lots of hostess snack cakes. Lived alone in a building with no elevator... Full of sass! Always on the go.
Your granfma could have been my dearest friend. I love you and your grandma's spirits!
"A lot of people tell me, 'But I used to be' -- ah yeah, me too, I used to be, but I'm still what I used to be." YES!
This is the type of story that Kipchoge means “No human is limited”

10 days left
hotshot619 How did it go!!!!
lest go!!!
the thing I miss about my husband is the paychecks....lol
The gold digging truth... unvarnished
She was worth it!
A true "livewire"!
Too bad for him
HikeRx no, it’s called being witty. Don’t be so literal
Alexander Lee exactly. I almost cried at that part. You can hear in her voice how much his passing hurt her despite her excellent disposition.
“If he could do, so can I” I LOVE her! She is my new hero. 86. A runner. AND a diva 💕💕 life goals.
“Know what I missed the most when he died? The paycheck.” Dang sis, you sassy girl. Love her.
I love how she says marathon. So French lol. What an inspiration!
Am I the only one who think she sucks?
@@eddiew2325 Why does she suck?
The way she says "respect" is very french too lol
@@eddiew2325...maybe you are wondering how she is at that activity as well?? May you have a Grandma fetish?? 🤣
"You can keep your body younger than your face." LOL
well, not really. She did not see her wrinkled skin, everywhere. Her joints have to be totally worn out. She can barely walk.
barely walk?! you try running 26.2 miles and then tell me she can barely walk!
Barely walk!!! C'mon!!! She completed a marathon. Leave the negative comments out. Give praise instead. Kindness cost nothing. 🤣🤣
@@linanicolia1363 What do you mean barely walk?
@@lizbee726 She's amazing.
She ran a sub 4 hour marathon at age 74!!!!! Amazing!
Wow!
That was twelve years ago. She should have quit then. That was enough.....why damaging your joints ?
@@linanicolia1363 damage your joints? How?
@@stevenjm12 Running is very high impact exercise and can put a lot of pressure on one's knees. Of course, it affects different people differently.
@@channelnametakenalready if you run correctly it should not put pressure on the knees
Stories such as this give us so much joy and inspiration. I wish we could have a story or two like this one every single day.
Of course she’s crazy and french. OF COURSE. I love her...
But she looks like an American with her make up!
She possess a very valuable trait, one of the most important for Humanity: Resilence; pure Grit!
SHE HAS MUCH TO TEACH AND REVEAL🥰🥰🥰What a beautiful Human, my gawd😫
Wow she has a great pace if she can finish in a little over 6 hours! Life goals there. I hope to keep as active as her when I get to her age.
4 marathons a year... I'd like to be as active as her NOW! LOL
To the lady who almost knocked “grandma” down 🤨 Watch it!!!
I was so pissed. She obviously knew that "grandma" was running and she ran right into her.
Right!!! Ugh that right there is a reason! That alone 🤬
It was on accident...
She thinks everyone is jogging at the same paste, not a 80 yo Grandma running in the way.Don’t Get so frusturated it was just an accident
That pissed me off. I can't stand ignorant runners. That one was trying to get her 5 mins of fame. 🙄
I am running my 68th marathon this sunday, (las vegas marathon)
Marathon completed i finished in 3 hours 47 minutes if any of u youtubers care
@@runningkirkwa2934 great job! My half marathon 2 weeks ago was 3 hours lol..need to improve my pace to join full..
Congrats!!! Great time!!!
68th?😰 what? How old are you?
So cool! How old are you, if I may ask?
When that lady bumped into grandma I got mad a lil bit
This woman is so inspiring. She's proof you're never too old and it's never too late to take up something new.
She still leaves many behind omg wow RESPECT
She’s amazing
I’ll remember you when I have no motivation for running.
I enjoy running and always ask myself ... I wonder how many more years can I keep on running?
I am in my 40s.
So you are and will be my inspiration for the next 40 years if God allows.
Thank you for your amazing example!
God bless you more.
So awesome. Im running my 1st 1/2 marathon next weekend. She gives me encouragement that i can do it to.
How has it been
She’s got the energetic spirit 👍
"I'm a legend." Omg I love her.

Oh my God!!! Love her. God bless her in all her blessed years & more to come! Hope to keep tabs on her!!
I love how she pronounce some words with the frenchiest accent possible! You rock grand mamie
She’s got such a French temperament! J’espère qu’elle continuera de courir encore un bon bout de temps!
Frantically gets up and start exercising after seeing the title 🏃🏿♀️
Incredible, I am a bit ashamed of myself, here is a grandma able to run10 miles, and I cannot even run 2 miles
Good for you ! you do not need to.
Get up and do it! :)
Everyone's gotta start somewhere
Bah Bowel right! I’m starting tomorrow 🤣this is all I needed
Bah Bowel 26. She can run 26 miles. There, now you can feel a proper shame like the rest of us.😅
How could anyone dislike this😭
This woman is awesome! Living proof that age is just a number and that dreams really do come true.

@@AnneWilkynson Thank you I'll give them a try!
I've got the same issues!
Great inspiration. Running is the best drug for depression or any mental health problems.
I've been running depressed for 2 years and it didn't help at all, then fortunately everything passed, I still keep running but I wish that was the cure for depression...
Of course it helps to make you feel better but depression is a thing way more serious than something that could be fixed with running imo
Depression is usually caused by an imbalance in the brain or Your life situation. Both can be helped by the right people.
“Discipline, determination and pride”
She's hilarious! I love her spirit and her energy!
What an inspiration. Wow. I loved everything she said.
Right on! What an inspiration and a lovely person!
‘I put on my sneakers and hit the road’ , I like it !!
queen!!!!! im gonna watch this at least once a week. so inspirational
What an inspiration she is. She really makes you think about your own life.
That is so amazing. This lady is such a hard worker and dedicated and a passion for the sport.
She is the epitome of an OG. She is sassy and spunky and loving her best life. Love her attitude. Long live Ginette!
Love her!

Omg..she looked heavenly gorgeous in her younger days....she still look great in her bikinis...
Wow, that family has good genes for longevity! Love her moxie.
I turned 38 January 21 this year. My goal is to do a marathon by 40. This shows it’s never too late.

This woman reminds me of my favourite aunt. So funny and the energy is just amazing.
I think it’s so adorable how she said there’s no competition 🤣 we need more active granny’s the way you keep your knees is to use it
I thought the same thing! Keep your knees for what? They're joints you better move them before you can't!
Oh, I adore her. I'd love to be her friend!💗💗💗
abs0lutelyfab I would as well!💓
What an inspiration she would be being her friend huh.
"looking old, not getting old"
Lol
I don't know her but I'm pretty sure I love her. She's inspiring ❤❤❤
"Now, I'm going to have a croissant and a cappuccio!" Allez Allez, Ginette!
This lady is amazing and inspirational!! LOVE her!!
Thank you for this wonderful motivation to do my long run this morning. I wasn't planning on 10 miles but maybe I'll do 6 instead of 5...
Amazing and inspiring woman. I'm going to save this to my favorites. I can use the inspiration on those days I don't feel like doing my walking!
“If granny can do it, I can too” * runs over granny while not paying attention! That could have been worse for granny.
Love her attitude so positive and very sincere.
This lady is amazing she is so full of life.
I wish I could still run. I was so happy running bad knee stage 3oa 😭
Ugh--I feel for you! I had to quit because of my knees, too. Realized my emotional coping skills were s**t because I'd always just relied on running. Here's to finding something else that we love!! :-)
It seems to me that the people disliking the video are damaged & trouble, why hate on a such positive & inspiring vibe !!!
OMG, i LOVE her spirit. "I love the applause because Ive earnt it".
You certainly have and thank you for putting me to shame, because of you, I might just put on but sneakers too.
She’s so inspiring!! You go girl! La vie es belle!❤️

It’s sad to hear that she feels alone. How can we get in contact with her to send encouraging words?!
Wow just amazing. What a goer!!! I hope I live as long and have such a positive outlook on life... lovely lady.

With that hair and makeup, I could have sworn that was Jennifer Aniston.
Better make that optometrist appointment stat.
This was a flop
Adam P i laughed way too hard at that
I love this! 😂
Heck did you see her early photos? She was a knockout. She might have trouble seeing now.
I'm sad that she feels lonely. God bless you Ginette.
