- After 60, the day after a good weight workout, my muscles don't feel pumped and energized, they just hurt.
- After 60, I could no longer immediately tell what kind of run I was going to do that day upon getting out of bed. I now have to wait until the aches from my night's sleep pass, then assess my physical condition.

- Because, when I step out of the shower, I need to like what I see in the mirror.
