Here's one hint - I have a friend who is 63 and he can hike me into
the ground. And another who is over 70 and can, at least, keep up.

Actually, I believe that I have mentioned my age before in some thread
long ago and far away.

ha HA!

Well, I have a few hiking buddies that are in the 60's and one is
close to 80 but I really do think genetics plays a role in folks that
age still hiking the dickens out of me. Both are in what we call
Mountain Rescue and go to help hikers/climbers who have gotten lost or
injured. They are incredibly fit. I'm 56+ and do okay for a pudge
but nothing like them. Even in my good days!

I did a google search... This was in Joyce's "goal" thread from
February. Sorry Fred!

Well, this morning was not as good as hoped.

But you really have a great chance in about two weeks - we have our
work "employee recognition breakfast" early the morning of WI. I will
be dressed in jacket, tie, slacks, etc and will have breakfast and
then head to WI! Not a great situtation unless I can sit with 300
others eating breakfast and NOT eat breakfast!

But maybe it is time to just let you have it as I would really hate to
be the one to drive you to desparation. Besides, some others are now
giving you a run for the money.

Ah, the ol' "I did not wake up grumpy, I let her sleep!" (G)

Actually, the new body must be in pretty good shape - I remember doing
this trip last year and struggling a bit more. I was surprised at how
early it was when I stopped for my SECOND lunch (G) Leaving on these
trips early - one tends to snack somewhere around 10am with the first
lunch and then eat again around noon.


that one. I am on a major roll this week feeling SOOOO renewed after
living
through turkey day and ending up with my scale saying 159 again. I am
gonna
be hard to beat this week, unless you kept some of your fabulous
recent
loss.........

I do hope I can disappoint you!!! I seem to be holding reasonably
well (fingers crossed). Maybe thanksgiving and awful pies helps!!!
(G)

But clearly this means that I cannot weighin in full regalia. It will
be your fault as I shiver in shorts. (g)

Dragged the OLD body out on a snowshoe trip yesterday. Glorious in
the mountains but the snow was definitely not my definition of
skiable.

But It would be nice to have some space. But heck, things are a little
chaotic here in humid land, I dunno what will transpire.

Your body can't be that old if you can still go skiing grandpa ;-p

A good "whine" also improves with age. So keep it up (g)

I know my age won't protect me so why reveal it so easily. It is less
than my weight and feels like a century away more or less.

How do I bring down an entire newsgroup. I guess I should add that
