Doing competitive judo at the age of 70...
How cool is that!
Story:
Ralph Bajema will be celebrating his 70th birthday next month with another gold medal around his neck.
Bajema took first place at the USA Judo Senior and Master's Judo Championships in Houston on April 22, winning gold in the 73-kilogram weight class of the master's division of the 65-69 age group.
It's the second national title for Bajema and seventh medal overall during his career. He also won silver in the same age group in the open weight division last week.
"I've been doing this for 50 years," Bajema said. "I'm going to compete as long as I can, hopefully until I'm at least 80."
