Fitness Test
All the hard work paid off. I passed my fitness test yesterday. I am elated.
However, running with a bunch of guys ten to thirteen years younger is sobering. In the first round, I trailed them by a few hundred metres. In the second round, most of them were out of sight. By the last round, I was running alone! HOO!

Congrats soldier.
Now start riding your bike and give those artifacts you call knees a rest :)
Thanks Scott!
Hahahah. Yeah. I plan to take another fitness test in June! That will fulfill my requirement for the next year.
Phew! I'm not far from forty. That should put an end to it! Those pesky fitness tests.
It's not funny when you see those twenty-four year olds running by you...
How old are you? I'm 44 and had to give up on running. I'm with Scott, I also mountain bike on trails around my house. Give you almost the same workout without the pounding in your knees (tore my medial miniscus and needed surgery)and (for me) lower back. Swimming is also excellent. If you are my age you are doing good!
I'll be thirty-eight next week. Heheh. Yeah, it seems like yesterday when I had the world before me at seventeen. Time really flies.
Yes, I swim too.
Your back? Was it the result of lifting really heavy things?
