“I probably won't be doing a crouch start， but it's only 16 years away，” he joked. Like anyone of his age， he's had health problems. He's had a string of vere heart attacks， but doctors have told him as long as it makes him feel good， he should carry on running.
“I can't let my heart get in the way of my training. When I am sprinting I have to give it my absolute all. My heart is the last thing on my mind，” he said.
He trains every other day， dances and plays hockey and he recently cuts down on alcohol and chocolate. He said， “I've heard alcohol can lead to dementia and I don't want that. I've cut down to one glass of wine every other day. I now have to stay as fit as I can be to keep up my lifestyle.”
Tony's next birthday is next September. And the first thing he wants to do is become the world's fastest 85-year-old.
