Today, my shot went from 5 kg to 4 kg, and I now throw over 30 feet for the first time (not exactly rippled with muscle, here, regardless of trying). Hurdles got three inches shorter, and a meter closer together. Outdoor race dropped from 100m to 80m, and from ten hurdles to eight. Javelin drops to 500g from 600 (but that doesn't matter much to me).
Now, if my discus wasn't so embarrassing, and if my 1500m weren't even worse......
In the multi-event competitions, you never age. The implements keep getting lighter and more manageable, and scoring is age graded...... theoretically, if your talent never eroded and you never improved, your score for a decathlon would be the same at 80 as for 20.
Today, I reaped the benefits of not dying. Very, very cool. Fell in with the correct crowd. Truly blessed, thank you Justin and Mary.
