83 yr old runner

There was an 82-year old woman at my first triathlon back in 2007. I am ashamed to say that her bike split was faster than mine. My swim and run were faster, and overall time was faster, but not a whole lot - it was a hard sprint. So that's pretty pathetic, on my part, that I basically got my a$$ kicked by an old lady I actually saw her on the run course, an out-and-back and she was starting out and I was heading back home. I was about to die at that point (had a great swim, but the bike flat out killed me) and she just looked at me, in her little flowery bathing suit and shorts and said "Looks like we're doing some race-walking!" and smiles Needless to say, that got me going again

I hope I can still walk without assistance when I'm 83, never mind do a triathlon.

DAMN!!! that's crazy.  Maybe she had an electric bike. haha ...tryin' to make ya feel better. 

Goals when I'm over the age of 80:

1) Walking on my own and

2) to not be that old guy that farts in the grocery store while buying bread and milk because we're suppossed to get a dusting of snow and need to stock up
