    Dave, Once you hit that magical number of 55, AARP will mail bomb you persistently. Like I said, I'm just a kid playing with bikes :D

    @anaconda - Welcome to the club! It's not that bad after you get over the shock.

    @leanz - it's sad when the kids leave - the house is awfully quiet (but clean LOL)

    @clepant - I was hoping the 60s were the new 30s - could you check again?

    @k80flec - congrats on the PBs! Way to go.

    As for me, a "cold" front came through Florida so I did a 10 mile tempo run today. I didn't run all last week between my husband being away leaving me on dog walking duty and it being as hot and humid as a steam bath outside. I was pleased with how it was going until the 9th mile when I think the heat got me (it's 73F). I had to slow down but still finished at a respectable pace. The timing wasn't great though because tonight I'm doing the group 12 mile bike ride. I think I'm going to be tired!

    @Janet: To be honest, I think I am in better health in my 60's than I ever was in my 30's, 40's or 50's. And if my student hadn't taken out my knee the day after my 60th birthday, I would be running better.
    But in truth, I ran my very first race, a sprint triathlon at 59 3/4. I ran three half marathons, three 10 milers, another triathlon and numerous 5 and 10K's all after I turned 60. I think that is pretty amazing and I think you do some impressive things as well as Anaconda. We are not getting older, we a are getting better.

    April 8: Adding 13.5 miles of walking 3.5 miles and 10 miles cycling.
    TTD: 105.5 miles

    Just dropping in to say I don't know when I will get some miles added. I had a BAD nightmare last Wed & I threw my leg over the edge of the bed & twisted my knee while in panic. Still painful to put full weight on. I think my grandsons love it cuz now nana can't catch them!!!
    I think spring has finally found us. It hit 80 yesterday & today was upper 60's. So wished I could take my fur kids for some much needed exercise!!

    Thanks @scarfe9991 - NZ races are fairly low key - no medal and no prize - just satisfaction

    @vhuber I do hope that knee improves quickly - but give it the time it needs! Knees are important :)

    Congrats to Leanz on placing 2nd! And thanks to scarfe for sorting me out LOL! (clearly my brain isn't 30)

    @vhuber - oh no about the knee. Unfortunately that was one nightmare that didn't end when you woke :'(

    @clepant - you are such an inspiration!

    As for me, I was pretty tired after my tempo run yesterday. Garmin's effort scale placed me at 4.8 out of 5, with 5 being overreaching. I guess that was why I was so beat that last mile. But despite being tired, I fueled up and went for a 15 mile bike ride with my night riding cycling group. I was joking I should take a swim when I got home to finish the triathlon. Then this morning, I got up and rode my bike to church. We have the Vice President visiting here and I was worried the usual horrible Easter vacation traffic would be tied up worse than ever. So I've logged some serious miles the last two days putting me at 51/75.

    55? I've been getting AARP mail since just before 50. :angry:

    Happy belated birthday to a fellow Aries!

    @Belated congrats Leanz! Somewhere I missed your race results.
    @vhuber: Ouch! Just the word knee injury makes me shutter. My husband went to PT for what they thought were nerve issues and the PT twisted. His knee and he woke with a torn meniscus. Looks like possible surgery in the future. Please take it easy girl nod let it heal.

    Thanks for all the birthday wishes. I've been off the radar last couple days doing a charity ride for my present to myself. The Daffodil Classic ride early this morning was awesome. Clear and sunny (but 32° at the start) until noon. I had finished by then and was chomping down on strawberry shortcake, uh well 2 of them actually. There goes the calorie bomb for today. And now I rest :)

    04/08 - 01.0 miles at the parade
    04/09 - 32.0 miles cycling (32 degrees at the start of the Daffodil Classic)

    Total: 165.0 miles

    I did do 18.5 on the ex bike without putting a whole lot of effort into it. It has had a constant throb since I tweaked it & it doesn't hurt any worse after the peddle! So I guess it may be bike miles for awhile.
