I take my 5 year old daughter to the local CrossFit gym to a kids’ class of fitness games on Sundays. The owner starts trying to sell me a membership and sends me a long email that evening.
I email him back saying if one of his 55 or older members can beat me in a varied fitness challenge, I’ll join his gym. I’m 55.
I’m a former sub 4 miler and in reasonable shape, without major injuries ( niggles yes).
Fitness regime of late has been light weights, a little jogging, and stretching. I’m 6’00” and 163 pounds, probably 12 percent body fat.
The owner emailed me back saying he will have a challenge of an endurance activity, a strength activity, and a mixed modal activity.
He said he has 5 members over 55.
I’m doubting he will find an uninjured over 55 guy willing to complete against some unknown challenger. I told him I don’t won’t to complete against some dude who is a member of some testosterone clinic.
What are my chances?
