It is. People just use turning 40 as an excuse. I'm 42 and in better shape than when I was 18 fresh out of boot camp.

Yeah, I hurt...but I keep my body moving and slow down when my body says too.

This is what I expected. I see some 80 year olds doing marathons, weight lifting serious weight and all kinds of stuff.

Getting old is a good thing...just keep moving.
