My Dad sent this;

'Welcome to the over the hill gang. The first requirement to join the gang is "every thing hurts." To become an officer in the gang it requires that "every thing hurts all of the time." To reach emeritus status it requires that "every thing hurts all of the time and it is going to be that way forever.'

He once said, dont get old kid, it sucks!

But my first love Jaque Cousteau ( the undersea diving legend, whom I adored at age 5 and up) said, he dove every day, as at 70 if he gave it up,he wouldnt be able to get back into the water.

Also, at the race two days ago - they made a special category for age 80 to 85 as they had one 85 year old.She hobbled up to get the award on a cane with ankle brace. Thats one tough cyclist!
