WOW....that is awesome. Best I ever did for 5000m was just under 22:00....and I was 36 yrs old then. These days I couldn't run outta sight on a dark and stormy night. Embarassed

Cheers, Vince

Man...I could make you guys real ashamed of yourselves here. WHEN I was 45 I ran the mile under 6:00 (minutes) then ran back to push my girls to the finish. My girls meaning two women that worked for me.

I almost bet I can still do a mile in 10 to 12 minutes run/walk style...

Let's not get to persnickety about the beer we serve here. At least you can get your favorite beer. I can't get mine where I'm at (they don't send it this far). My second favorite I can't afford. So I'm stuck with my third favorite and then I get the generic...

So could i, but at 62 those days are long gone! Sad

And I'm giving 68 a good push. I have been lucky though. I'm in excellent health. And I do a lot of hiking with a [younger] friend of mine.

Yep, keeping up with younger people will do that! My biggest downfall is allowing myself to be overweight, which tends to slow you down a lot, but i am going to do something about that this winter Sad
