I've been a summertime runner for many years. It was a healthy thing to do, but I just couldn't force myself to run through the off season. Call me wimpy.
About five years ago, I started running year round. I don't run on workdays, but get out on all the rest. I was proud of turning into a more serious runner. Of course, there are many folks out there my age or more that do it better.
Two years ago, I replaced our second car with a bike, and have ridden it to work ever since. I also use the two-wheeler most of the time as my non-work transportation, too. I am proud of being a biker rather than a driver. So now I was a running, biking fool. Still, I am bested by many other old guys.
Last November, I returned to Karate training. I typically attend three classes a week. Now I am a biking, running, Karate dude. Can't imagine all that many old farts doing that particular combination.
Oh, yeah. I can dance, too.
I am a 68 year old retired teacher living on the west coast of Canada. I spent over 30 years as a student of Karate until my knees stopped liking it. My current passionate activity is Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, which I've been at for about 13 years.
