Your running and biking mix is similar to what my Dad has done for decades and at 75 has barely slowed down. Some luck is involved but also cross training, a sensible diet, and knowing when to back off, things you seem to have a handle on. Best wishes to you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-81474456447217905552014-08-19T23:38:08.468-06:002014-08-19T23:38:08.468-06:00Happy birthday Jill,

I've followed your blog since you were in Juneau, but haven't commented before, just wanted to wish you a happy birthday and say thanks for letting us follow your adventures. Good luck and have fun at TDG.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-28646784364648083372014-08-19T19:48:11.008-06:002014-08-19T19:48:11.008-06:00Happy Birthday, Jill!

Just bought a pair, my first Hokas and my first trail running shoes (well, first running shoes at all, but I am going to start out walking in them). Couldn't abide the laces they came with - too hard to get my feet in, was afraid I was going to tear something, and too hard to adjust for comfort on top but not allowing heel to lift inside. I cut that lace out and replaced with the regular laces that came in the box and laced them straight across (no Xs) to relieve pressure on top of foot. Way better. <br /><br />Jill J.Jill Jeffersonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-88556987379047326752014-08-19T10:20:03.188-06:002014-08-19T10:20:03.188-06:00Happy Birthday Jill.

Any birthday above ground is a good one. I'm almost 58, and have walked the road you're headed down. It's 40 where things change. Things start to break-down quicker, recovery takes longer, it doesn't feel good as long. <br />I'm a man so my perspective is different. I want to meet my maker, limping in, looking like Keith Richards. Even in today's society an ugly man can still end up with a beauty-go figure. So be kind to your skin and your body in general. Extreme is a bullshit, over used term. <br />All things in moderation-moderation can be somewhat flexible-including moderation. <br />I hope you live as long as you want, never want as long as you live, and that you're in heaven for 30 minutes before the devil finds out you're dead. <br />Be safe out there, start thinking of quality and not quantity when it comes to food, drink, work, sex and yes, adventure. <br />You'll end up happier, and less broken down and tired for it. z-manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09572343329703287829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-22847404158712489212014-08-19T06:46:14.011-06:002014-08-19T06:46:14.011-06:00Happy birthday.
