[QUOTE="MW204, post: 2789700, member: 118876"] I'm in my mid 60's, last year I started walking to get ready for my hunt in Nebraska, it's not Colorado, but the rivines that had knee high grass in them kicked my butt the year before. I had a full knee replacement in 2019, with a lot of problem post surgery. I worked up to 1.5 mile and I had a backpack with 25 lbs in it. I was all ready for Nebraska until 2 days before we left and I got sick. I have NO idea what I got other than I was sick as I have ever been, it was not covid, at least that's what the test said, anyway I could barely breath, I had to set up a groundblind stand like hunting whitetail. Here it is 5 months later and I'm still having breathing problems, not like Nebraska, but I'm slowly getting back into it. We take our health for granite until it's not there any longer, so if you can do it get off the couch and get out there and do it before you can no longer do it if you want to. [/QUOTE]
