Talking Sports And Fitness With Zeke

Jim Sutton shares with Zeke his remarkable story of still going strong in his 80s. Sutton, 85, has set six world records, 17 national records and won over 50 national championships as a Masters runner. Sutton, who won three state championships as Exeter’s boys cross country coach in the 1960s, also talks with Zeke about his other physical activities such as biking (which he gave up last year after breaking an arm in a crash), 3-to- 4-hour daily gym workouts and wind surfing. Sutton also recounts for Zeke his compelling training sessions with former Olympian middle-distance runners and world-record holders Sebastian Coe of Great Britain and John Walker of New Zealand in the 1970s. Sutton has been inducted into the Berks County Sports Hall of Fame, the Pennsylvania Sports Hall of Fame and the Masters Track and Field Hall of Fame.
