Lovin Elders for the Inspiration!

Anyone else out there see the odd older person working out, and killing it? It inspires me to no end. I turn to my husband and say, I want to be like that when I am 60 or 70. I seen a older woman (at least 65) jogging down the path I use for biking. Inspiring is all I can say. Not to mention the 72 year old man who beat my 40 year old husband in swimming hands down. He came snorkeling with us without fins. Not easy seeing as how the reef was full of spikey urchins. He just swam. Awesome. Not to mention the 80 year old who lives in my building who still bikes, long distances whatever, just does it. Makes you think. That could be you. Healthy and fit. Keeps me working hard. Especially since all these people are fitter than I am. Awesome.

I couldnt agree more. Boggles the mind. Inspiration to be certain. I saw a tag line on someone's profile that was something along the lines of..."Some 80 year olds are in phenomenal shape. So I still have time." I am counting on those years...
