Your Retirement Is a Marathon, Not a Sprint

Stop Chasing the Finish Line

For decades, we’ve been told to work toward a finish line.

A number. A date. A certain amount in the bank.

Sprint toward it. Cross it. And the rest is vacation. Right?

But what happens after you cross it?

What do you do with the next 8,000 days? That’s the unspoken question.

The brilliant minds at MIT AgeLab have been exploring this. They see retirement not as an end, but as a dynamic phase of life—a second act that can last as long as your first.

8,000 days. A new chapter. A movie full of plot twists and opportunities.

Most financial plans were built for the finish line. Designed to hit a number, a date, a milestone.

But a good life isn’t about just getting to something.

It’s about building a life that doesn’t run out of money, purpose, or health before you do.

This isn’t about fear. It’s about liberation.

When you stop thinking of retirement as a finish line, you can start building a plan for it—a plan built for a marathon. One that considers your energy, health, relationships, and the purpose you want to create.

It’s time to shift your focus from extending your lifespan to extending your wealthspan—the years you can live with freedom, health, and purpose.

That’s not a Google search. That’s a conversation.

And that conversation is exactly where we begin.
