Setting World Records And Living An Extraordinary Life At 89 Years Old with Anne Lorimor – 086

  • Post author:

Have You Ever Lived Or Traveled Overseas?

In this episode, I’m joined by Anne Lorimor, one of the most impressive and genuine people I’ve ever met. She is a Guinness World Record Holder, keynote speaker, and philanthropist.

Anne was born at the beginning of the great depression as the oldest of 10 children. Despite growing up poor, she went on to earn a B.A. in Journalism, B.S. in Nursing, R.N., M.S. in counseling, M.S. in health education, and Ph.D. in mass communications.

Then in the early 80’s she was diagnosed with lymphoma. She managed to beat it.

And then in 2015 at 85 she summited Mt. Kilimanjaro (the highest peak in Africa and the highest single free-standing mountain in the world) to become the oldest person to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro. But then someone beat her record so she decided she had to take it back and climbed it again at the age of 89. It took her 9 days to reach the top (with 3 broken ribs).

Her motivation was raising money for her nonprofit foundation Creating Exciting Futures which seeks to help give every child the chance to reach their full potential.

In addition to that, she recently climbed Machu Pichu and she has traveled to over 100 countries.
