In my younger years I thought about doing the AT. Thought about it just once, then I hiked back to my couch.

Old age never comes alone. My mother had a setback for a few years in her early 70s when dad died. She came back like a hungry tiger a few years later. My nephew called her Bunny--the Energizer Bunny. She didn't start to slow down again until she was in her 80s.
