I must report what our friend John C did on Monday. He celebrated his 92nd birthday on Sunday. He had set a 200 lb. deadlift goal for his birthday. He lifted (drum roll) 225 lbs. He is toying with the idea of entering a competition.

[Mr. Bingley]

That's GREAT!!

I must have missed this in the Elderly Thread of Awesome.
Two wheels at 92, I salute you.

He doesn't post. However, we brag about him all of the time on You Tube and Face book.
