Stock Birthday GiftJune 26, 2008 This book is great for someone turning 40, 50, 60, 70... It is so inspiring to see images of happy, healthy, active seniors. I guarantee this book to be a big hit.

This book is an inspiration to all! Great pictures of senor athletes who are in fabulous shape. If we all could look this great at advanced age! Just goes to show that physical excercise can keep you young and fit! Looved this book and think it's a great gift item.

A terrific follow up on the original book; "Growing Old is Not For Sissies" - highly recommend both
Gotta love the [...] kicking old fartsSeptember 9, 2007 As a 50 year old runner and biker, I loved this book. I am now firmly entrenched in middle age and need the occasional inspiration to get out on the trails of Houston especially during the brutally hot summers. This book is full of what I need. A beautifully photographed and written book portraying active seniors competing and loving life, some well into their 90s. Truly amazing. The book is generally formatted with a picture and a few paragraphs written about and in some cases by these special people. By personal favorite is 83 year old surfer "Woody" Brown pictured with his 6 year old son Woody Jr. (Yep.... do the math) A copy of their picture is posted on my refrigerator for those days I hesitate to lace up the running shoes.
Wonderful gift idea!!!April 14, 2007 1 out of 3 found this review helpful
I have bought this book now as a birthday gift for my father, my husband and two of our friends (all of whom are athletes who are definitely NOT sissies!). It is such a beautiful testimony to the fact that age is just a number. I hope someday I might qualify to be in one of Etta Clark's future edition of this book.
