I’m 70 and weighed in an hour ago at 192.4. (Yes, we’ve got a digital scale)
and I am a towering 5’8” (questionable). Thirty years ago I tipped the scales at 250. I underwent my first triple bypass 5/25/83, and shortly thereafter began a serious running program. Shortly after returning to duty, my leaders decided to put me back on the horse that threw me, so they sent me TDY to Baghdad. I ran just about every day through those horribly polluted streets. In Baghdad, I first learned about “The Hash House Harriers” and ran with them often. I ran four miles a day in Mexico City at 7,500 feet, in Havana at sea level and in Jo’burg at 4K, and a lot of other locations in Africa and Latin America. Now, I’m disabled and get around on a cane on a good day, and am holding my walker in reserve. I can’t even walk outside now. Aren’t you glad you asked? Ask me what time it is, and I’ll tell you how to make a clock.
