Re: Is 41 to old to get back in shape and start highland games?
I started when I was 49.
This past year I was at the Woodland Games on Saturday to cheer on some C class athletes and Bethany Owen. I got to talking to an "older couple" and finally, late in the afternoon, the gentleman turned to me and asked how he might get involved. So I told him about our practice group. He started driving down, and I don't think he missed more than one or two practices all summer. Sure, he didn't win a mess of medals, but he's DOING IT. He's out on the field throwing. His wife thinks he's a stud. HE IS A STUD.
....and Ted is 64 years old
