That's very good going, Jaki! At 70, I try to walk, bike and do some strength exercise regularly. π
I'm irritated by these 'inspirational' articles on TV that insist that the exceptions would be the norm if people 'applied themselves'. Not exeryone can - for various reasons - genetic and economic!

It's lovely that some eighty-five year olds can run five miles and do the high-jump.
However, these are the exceptions, where genetics, luck and opportunity have blessed their continued physical profficiency.
'Just try harder' - is a cruel and unjust incentive.

"Later that night, after a couple of pints in 'The Strangled Otter' - Kevin and Barry decided that enough was enough - extreme yarn was the only way they could go..."
From, "The Wind Up the Beech Trees," by Naomi Cruddle (1963).
Marvellous. That's a salacious amount of yarn.

I've always loved the things you leave;
A wallet here, a sweater there.
I know you're close, I know you're here;
I'd find emptiness - hard to bear.
