In preparation for the final stretch of his farewell tour, Elton John has a special fitness routine: he runs in his pool every day.
Elton John (76) started his final UK tour last week. He still has 50 concerts ahead of him, so of course the musician had to get in shape.
According to the Daily Mail The 76-year-old now revealed his fitness routine: “I get up, have breakfast and go for a walk in the pool. At my age it’s the best thing I can do. I walk sideways and do about six miles a week.” Six miles equals almost ten kilometers.
Farewell tour has been running since 2018
Since 2018, John has been doing his farewell tour “Farewell Yellow Brick Road” with interruptions. The tour had been repeatedly postponed due to the pandemic and the singer’s health problems, and in 2021 he had to undergo hip surgery. Elton John will play his last concert in his home country in June at the legendary Glastonbury Festival.
At the end of April to mid-May, John is also coming to Germany. Stations are Munich, Hamburg, Berlin, Mannheim and Cologne. The very last concert is scheduled to take place in Stockholm on July 8, 2023.
