with Judith Hann
Exercise, they say, for a healthier, longer life. But where is the proof? As Judith steps into her 40s and continues to seek evidence for the best we can do to stay young, she discovers some scientific surprises: jogging pigs who show humans how to care for their hearts; how James Hunt 's favourite form of exercise might be useless for most of us; why sweeping the path could lead to fitness and waves of chemical pleasure to the brain.

Tony Wilkinson reports on the amateur sportsmen and women who become victims of their own will to win; on the children who are damaged by adults pushing them too hard in the hope of basking in reflected glory; and on the professional footballers who've been relegated to the bottom of the sporting health league.
