This runner is eighty one years old. He finished first in his age category.
Of course, he was the only runner in his age category.

Today I should wake up in Venice, I will be away for two weeks. Internet might not be available and time will be tight, so I am not likely to be visiting any blogs for a while. But, posts are scheduled for every day I am away. I hope you enjoy them.
The 81 year old gives me hope. :-)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to the 81-year old.

ReplyDeleteJack, I hope that you take lots and lots of photos, which you share with us, and I hope that you meet blogger Pierre, a fine fellow indeed. Try to read some of Donna Leon's mysteries while you are there. One of my favorite writers. Have a GREAT time.
ReplyDeleteLove your shots for the day particularly the 81 year old -- gives me hope!! Have a wonderful trip and take lots of pics!! For me, that will be the next best thing to being there myself!!

Love all the shots but that 81 year old is positively inspiring (and shaming...now what excuse do I have)!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy, Jack. I hope the weather is better for this trip!
ReplyDeleteI hope I'm still running like that when I'm 81!!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy Venice, Jack. :)
Wonderful energy in his face. Someone like that will almost certainly live past a hundred. For eighty one, he looks a lot younger!
ReplyDeleteBravo to the first gentleman!
ReplyDeleteGreat action shots!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your Venice without hurry!
ReplyDeletei started running just before i turned 30... i wonder whether i would be able to do it when im 81 (probably not, its so hard)! amazing!!
ReplyDeleteHaha! There are some 'strained' faces there Jack. Jeepers I hope I'm still running when I'm eighty, I wouldn't even mind coming last!
