Fit at 60. Plant-Based For 20 Years | The Rebuild Series

Momentous partner, Rich Roll, has just turned 60 and is training for the NYC Marathon after spinal fusion surgery in 2025. Here's how he's approaching fitness, food and aging now. In film 2 of The Rebuild series, Rich talks about what he wants his life to look like at this age. In his words, he wants to "model what a lifestyle can be" and "change the narrative around how we think about aging up and getting older." He goes back to the moment of reckoning before he turned 40, when a health scare collided with an existential crisis, and how that led him to a plant-based lifestyle. He explains his training philosophy ("I'm not doing anything impressive other than just being super consistent"), why "you can't out-train a poor diet," and why he thinks the quality of your relationships is the most underappreciated part of the health span equation. Then the marathon. He says he's confident he'll get there, but it's "by no means a certainty." He doesn't just want to be a runner among runners. He wants to guide a blind athlete, because "it really isn't about me. It's about serving somebody else." Rebuilt follows Rich Roll on the road to the NYC Marathon.
