Ha this! If I'm still running at 90 that'd be awesome. Then again, do I ever really want to be 90? |

Sensei Sin City | Subject: RE: Two 90 year olds in 100 meter sprint I didn't watch it, but the premise makes me anxious! If a 20 yr old kid can get a compound fracture playing basketball, it makes me nervous to see a couple brittle boned 90yr olds sprinting! Good on them, though. |

If I can still run, then I can still get around and live.... I'll take it! |

If I'm 90 and still running people can throw rotten fruit for all I care. (It's probably all I'll be able to gum down by then anyway) Edited by Left Brain 2013-04-04 12:35 PM |

That Belgium (winner) got a little cocky and rubbed it in at the end when he raised his hand in victory a couple of meters before the finish line. Belgium's are not good sportsmen. That was great! I can't imagine having that kind of mobility when I get there very soon. |

| Pro 5755 | Subject: RE: Two 90 year olds in 100 meter sprint I have to say running gets in your blood. My dad ran for many years, stopped when he turned 70 because of hip issues. Had both hips replaced and at 74 he just hired a a trainer and is back on the treadmill. Calls me every time he leaves the gym to tell me his time and distance. |

I think I'll still be running at 90. Surely 50 years is enough time to get my knees and hips replaced? |

I'm sure it's just payback because he's sick of hearing it from me! My dream now is to do a 5k this summer with him and my youngest son (who is a discus thrower and they force him to run track). I don't care if we all end up walking, I want that photo. |
