    I'll try to run a 10K by the end of September. Started running last year only, so she's got a few years on me :P

    Ha! She certainly does. I hope you're not giving yourself until 92 to reach your goal.

    Hey, if you're consistently active, you're already far ahead of the curve. Obviously, don't stop pushing though. Good stuff.

    That's insane.

    I just finished my sixth marathon last weekend at the Scotia race in Toronto and I already feel like my body is beginning to fall apart.

    Think I'm gonna take a year off running and take up biking like the old folks around the city
