Osteofitness and the stereotypes of aging.

A member of Osteofitness II recently returned from a vacation in Turkey which focused on hiking through archaeological sites and ruins. Upon her return, she recieved this email from a much younger member of the tour:

"This trip, coming at a time of mid-life crisis for me, gave me hope for the future -- both from the stimulation of the trip itself and from seeing how you and others older than I could so fully participate too.

I hope you took full pleasure in shattering a lot of ageist stereotypes."
