Joseph Coughlin, Director of the MIT Agelab, gives a talk at TEDx Boston: Aging As An Extreme Sport. “Aging is not for wimps. Think about it. As you change your environment remains the same.

And, what was once a simple shopping trip or bus ride is now something that feels like the last few yards of a swim meet.”
