Keep up the work Bucky. I'll be 65 in May. Don't know if I could make that 200 ft climb or not.......
Ya did good. It hurts "real good" don't it.

Oh, my aching thighs !
At 62 in may I have decided to try and get fit again, as I have done bugger all since last June, when they shut the gates, in the Victorian High Country, for winter.
Fitness of some sort definately helps with hunting Sambar deer.
So it was up the outside of the Milk Spray Drier Building, at work.
That's a 200+ ft climb to the top.
It ended without a heart attack, no stopping, or Asthma....
Bloody hell.. I'm a Legend (that a total of 5 minutes in nearly 62 Years)
Now here is the twist,
TODAY "my freeking thighs are aching like hell"
Yes, I am a bit of a sook, but am loving it..
The photo is from last June, just 4 days before they shut the gates
Dunno why I put a snapshot on the forum from last winter, as its 90+ every day here at the moment, I suppose I am just syncronizing the photo's with your winter .
hehehehe

Im 54 and feel like that after working in the yard
It's more than I could do and I'm only 51 .

Way to go Bucky. I'm convinced if we stay healthy and fit we can stay comfortably in the hills for a long time.
We just started a fitness thread over at HPFF. I'm 53 and you boys don't want to know what I'm doing to stay fit. One of the ex Navy guys is a fitness guru and he pointed out it has a fancy name. I just call it puking exercise, cause if I'm doing it right it sometimes makes me feel like puking. But it is working very well.

Ya, but my point is if you don't have any dangerous health problems that prevent you from getting fit, you still can. It's a whole lot harder than it used to be to get through the first few weeks, in fact you might swear it's killing you, but I literally feel 35 again. Now I know it's impossible to quantify what I felt like at 35, but I'm fit again, and because my workout includes weights I'm cut again too. The wife loves it,
and so do my heart and lungs. I have wind again.
