Former Cross-Country Champ, 68, Nabs Mugger

One more reason to stay in shape...

"Three teen aged thieves in Britain got more than they bargained for. The boys snatched a purse from Janet Lane while she sat on a park bench. But what first looked like an easy theft quickly became a high-speed pursuit. Lane took off after them, eventually catching one of the boys by the collar. The thieves didn't count on their 68-year-old victim being a high school cross-country champion who had never given up running." Morning Edition, October 15, 2008, npr.org
