[QUOTE="lancetkenyon, post: 3092278, member: 68875"] I am 53. I feel I am in pretty decent shape. And much better shape than most of the guys my age that I know. I got a lesson two years ago. Work smarter not harder has been my motto for a while now. Went on an elk hunt with my 27 year old nephew who just got out of the military and is a ruck-runner. While I went up every single mountain he did, I did the skirt around to the top while he went straight up. He never did beat me to the top by much though. We averaged 7.2 miles (IIRC) and 4k' of elevation change a day for 7 days straight. Got the most backhanded compliment I have ever heard. "You are in really good shape...for a guy your age." Little $#!t.
