I’m a believer. At 72 I walk, run some, lift weights and do planks, etc. I’ve been doing a 3 mile walk with short runs interspersed along the way 3 days a week. Last weekend I went to a school track and took off to see how far I could jog. Made it 3 miles without any walking, was shocked.

I'm 60 and follow a similar plan. My hat's off to you to be carrying on at 72. That's my plan as well. My fondest wish is to keel over one day, rather than rot in an armchair for my final years.

Being a working stiff still, this means I'm up at 0415 on weekdays to get this all done before my workday starts. You get used to it.
