Am I ever tired - I just got done trimming the yard with a self-powered hand mower - it took me all most two hours. It wasn't enough that I was in a bike race that started at 10 this morning and lasted 1 1/3 hours, 27 miles of hills and strong winds.

I averaged 21 miles per hour. It is hard to believe when I think about the long climbs at 9 and 10 miles per hour, but no so hard when I think about the 50 mph down hills.

My age bracket is 60 to 64, but I beat everyone over the age of 60 and a lot of racers that are thirty years younger than I am. It pays to stay fit but now I need rest
