We tend to think of the Olympics as being for young people. But much depends on the specific sport, and the resilience of the specific athlete. Meet 38-year-old Robyn Stevens of Vacaville, California. She's representing the U.S. at the Tokyo Olympics after taking a 12-year break from professional race walking.
As a child, Stevens loved soccer and dance. She was in middle school when her PE teacher invited her to get into track and field. She decided on race walking after watching an elite meet at Stanford University.
