10K (6.2 miles) - Olympic Distance Triathlon
Agree on being able to physically move when you get older, but I try to solve for this by walking the dog, stretching, lifting some heavy stuff a few times a week. I'm not here to bash running, but rather to say it just doesn't work for me.
C2 is just impossible to beat for overall productivity- i.e., VO2 max training and resistance training all in one device. And I get plenty of bone density type activity between skiing and mt biking (road biking sucks for this of course).
100" of snow received in Nov along so far @pawz !!

Pre-covid was running 4 miles on a treadmill, 4-5 days a week. Covid and working from home completely threw that and eating habits off. Snacks easily available is not a good thing for me. Have been trying to get back on track but its been a struggle. Sports are ultimately the best exercise, though a bit rougher on the joints and muscles. I can play hoops or faggy pickle ball for 2 hours but wouldn't dare try that on the treadmill or through town.

I’ve decided that for average adults pickleball is decent exercise. I mean it’s not tennis but you’re still moving around which is more than we can say for most Americans.

Agreed! Its a much easier starter for most people than tennis. The serve alone being the biggest barrier.

The number of ACLs in 60-somethings has quintupled since the advent of pickleball.
But they’re healthier!

ACLs can be fixed. A heart attack will kill ya.

60-somethings are three and a half times more likely to have a coronary event after suffering an ACL tear.

Well, good thing I’m not a pickle baller.
I’m 4 ski days into the season though and it’s not even December so pray for my knees.

Most pickle ballers I know think they’re athletes, getting all hot and bothered when they play, then having the gall to tell me all about their “match” over beers.
Gimme some ping pong or badminton and call it good.
