I'm racing. Started out by attempting to complete an Ironman after being inspired to start triathlons again after a 5 year hiatus. I did my first at 42 and quit after 10 years. After 2 Ironman age group wins followed by disappointing races at the World Championship, I'm plotting my third assault on Kona. So, your 60's don't just have to be about staying active.
