Somehow, in the past few years I zoomed from 50 to 60 in something like a nano second. As I crawl even further over the hill and enter the dark side called 60 +, I find myself wondering what that number really means, besides discount day at the store.
There is longevity in my family. My father recently passed away in his 89th year, leaving me and my sisters, but also his 90 year old sister and his 94 year old brother. My mother was taken too soon at 68 but her mother lived until almost 97. So somewhere, all of those long life genes are a part of me, too.
There is the saying that the 60's are the new 40's and then there is the one that you gotta use it or lose it.
So, I am embarking on a new adventure, moving more to find what was lost and hopefully, turn back the clock as I journey.
I have signed up to do a sprint triathlon.
The big event takes place June 15, 2014.
I am beginning training now.
