my perception ... was greatly altered ... after watching ... the U.S. Senior Olympics... specifically table tennis (ping pong) competitors in the "over 80" and "over 85" age ranges. Those old folks were amazing!
Aye Scott, a long-time friend 15 years my senior was a national table tennis champion in her younger days. When mobility prevented competing at the national level, she started her own class coaching younger folks to follow in her footsteps. They were literally breaking down the doors to get into her class. She'd still have fun "competing' with the younger folks, using tricks that they hadn't yet learned.
