I never learned to clean or snatch. (The explosive lifts are hard on the pushing 50 crowd.)
I PR'd 36 pullups 2 years ago, probably could do 15-20 now.
I don't run the 1.5 mile stuff. Pretty boring. I have entered the Squaw Peak 50 twice. Ran 30 and 36 miles in the mountains. Bowed out--that was tough. I ran the Snow Shoe Marathon in the mountains 3 times. The last time I only did 22 miles and bowed out with IT pain (it was only 3 months after my heart attack so I hadn't been training).

David, I'm pretty sure I remember when you were talking about hanging a rope in your shop and climbing up it. Nice goin'.
