Guest guest Posted July 22, 2005 Report Share Posted July 22, 2005 Some interesting centenarian info. http://www.census.gov/prod/99pubs/p23-199.pdf#search='how%20many%20centenarians%20in%20united%20states' There will be lots of us in 2035.

Visiting my bro in his upscale retirement home, there was a man who walked briskly down the hall, using ski poles to keep his balance. He said he walked 2 miles per day and he was going at least 3 mph, maybe 3.5. He was 95 yo, about 6 feet tall, guess about 175#. Long strides. I now plan to reduce to 2 miles per day when I get to 95. Next time I'm there, I'll try to keep up long enough to get more data. Regards.
