I hope so...coz I sure don't want to be working out with everyone tons younger than me and break my neck getting off the bike or treadmill. Actually I hope to continue on this pattern of life of incorporating a good workout as part of my daily routine (minus those days of things that keep me away from getting there....) But, after doing a road bike challenge this summer....and see some 75 yr old guy in LEVI'S who did over 250 miles that day.............damn...for an old guy.......he looked better in his jeans than some guys do in their late 30's and up! That's the ticket to looking great - keep on keeping on with working out! |

That was interesting... I'm supposed to live to 92.7I did have a problem with on eof the q's though... I grew up a hour outside of L.A. sir pollutions were pretty much a daily thing for me until about 6 years ago... maybe I should have answered yes to that on ein stead of no. O well I guess I'll go when I go and make the most of each day that I am here. |

87.2. Not bad. If I didn't work outside, the suntan wouldn't be as necessary. Also curious...what if you had done some of those things to yourself, but no longer do? Still pretty cool though. |

Mine is 92.7, but the thing is they ask my weight: I'm 200 5"11, but not fat at all...well a little so I think I lose a little there.
I still think I won't get there, but it is fun to know... Dayz -------------- Dayz... If being in shape was easy, everybody would be!! Train hard, you\'ll see them !! |

Holy Crap mine is 97.4. Yeah sure. Probably get murdered before then lol. Actually longevity is common to the females but the males die young. I have a good lifestyle. That must help. However I have neurological problems from migraines due to a car accident a truck hit my head at 6 years old and I had a TIA from that crap so I wonder if I would really see 97. I take Aspirin each day along with other meds. I have hypothyroid and menopause. I take meds for all of the above so I wonder.... I feel good most of the time though except when my head acts up. Then it is hell.

Okay, so...I got 97.8 This brings up all kinds of issues for me. I'll just have to keep working out for 70 more years to keep my strength and posture, marry someone rich and 15yrs younger than me since, men don't live that long...generally. Hhmmm...that means my future husband is about 12yrs old right now...there is something seriously wrong with that.
