I'm 69, and going to 2 SRO club gigs tonight and tomorrow night. My 70 year old buddy might have to bail due to a death in the family, but very, very few of my peers can stand for 3 hours!
So I've run out of replacement candidates!
This is one of the many things 'they' never warn you about as you plan your retirement, expecting to be globetrotting.

    Met a couple in their 60's backpacking the AT. They absolutely cooked the rest of us. It was inspiring. If you use it, you keep it.

    I have a 76 year old coworker who does 18 mile runs. He doesn't do marathons because he gets too bored. I console myself with the fact that at least he looks like a pork chop that's been forgotten in the fridge, but it's not much of a consolation.
