I think I’ll be able to ride a bike until the day I die.
Unless I get some awful debilitating somethingorther that means my limbs don’t work. Or my ability to balance just goes away.
But I am hopeful.
Hula.
That said, I tried to hula hoop recently, and I can’t do it.
If you are a 50(ish) year old chap like me, I challenge you to try this.
OK so I know that as I am getting older there is an increasingly long list of things that I can’t do. But I imagined this to be things like ‘turn heads’ or ‘have a chest that sticks out further than my tummy’ or ‘run very fast for a long time’.
All of these things reflect an increasing wrinklyness, baldness, fatness and unfitness.
But bloody hula hooping?!
I wonder what else I am losing the ability to do that I once could.
I dread to think.
Help.
Anyhow, help me out a bit.
If, like me you have used up about 600 of your 1000 months on earth, try hula hooping and let me know how you do.
Or is it just me?
And my definition of hula hooping is keeping the hoop going around your waist (if you still have one – a waist not a hula hoop) for 30 seconds.
Send a video.
Please.
