As You Age…Keep Moving.

The dad challenge…yes, I bit!

When you’re walking past a college sports stadium, and your son turns to you and says, “come on then, let’s have a race.”

Gullible bites, jumps the fence and shouts, “come on then.”

So, a wee blast with memories flowing from the past, and woosh…71yr old dad gets slaughtered by son.

A good laugh though, back stretched out of place on a freezing cold day…but laughs from my wife and daughter too, as stunned onlookers.

On a serious note, if you want to continue to wake up each morning…KEEP MOVING!

However, like everything in life, there are no guarantees, but it most certainly helps.

My wee tip for all of us who are ageing, here endeth my posts for 2025.

May 2026 be your best year ever.
