#68. Stronger for longer: why bone health matters more than you think with Angela White, The Running Granny

If you’ve ever wondered whether it’s too late to start looking after your bone health, this episode is the reminder you need.

Angela White, better known as The Running Granny, didn’t begin running until she was 53. Since then she’s run thousands of miles, including 2 epic challenges; 875 miles from John O’Groats to Land’s End, and 62 peaks at 62 (in less than 62 hours!), and become a powerful voice for healthy ageing and bone health awareness.

But this conversation isn’t just about ultrarunning. It’s about the tiny daily decisions that can shape our health for decades.

We talk about:

• why bone health matters more than most of us realise

• how small daily habits turn into lifelong strength

• the reality of perimenopause, ageing and independence

• why frailty and osteoporosis are not inevitable

• how to start, even if you feel unfit, overwhelmed, or unsure

Angela’s story is extraordinary, but her message is beautifully simple: it’s never too late, and every small step counts.
