We’re speaking with AirForce Veteran, Robert Owens, author and athlete. Robert is coined as the “fittest sixty-six year old in the world”. Robert speaks about his experiences in the military, his career in public speaking and how being a caregiver for his father helped him discover his entrepreneurial spirit. Robert has completed 12 Ironman Competitions, SEALFIT’s Kokoro 50-Hour Challenge – where he was awarded “Most Advanced Age Ever Award” by SEALFIT and “The World Marathon Challenge – 7 Marathons 7 Continents 7 Days.

About Our Guest

For more than 25 years, Robert has been speaking before audiences as large as 50,000, from San Diego to Moscow on motivational and leadership topics. His past clients include the Navy SEALs, New York Jets, The Baltimore Ravens, The Philadelphia Eagles, South African Parliament, the Vietnamese Department of Foreign Affairs, and the Philippines Joint Chiefs of Staff. He’s been invited to address the South African Parliament, and has made five trips teaching officials in the Vietnamese Department of Foreign Affairs. During 22 of those years, he hosted the regional Fox network television program “Leadership for Changing Times” in Reno, Nevada where, by two separate Governor’s appointments, he also served for eight years on the Nevada State Judicial Ethics Committee.

While it takes extraordinary physical condition to be in the Air Force Special Ops or to best the many Ironmans he’s bested, Robert will readily affirm that success in these physical endeavors – and in life in general – is as much a matter of will and mental attitude as it is physical conditioning. When most have long since slowed as they approach their golden years, The Fittest 66-Year-Old in the World continues to routinely take on unprecedented challenges, and to help others see what can be achieved in their own lives.
