Wow, 68 and still crushing it! I'm inspired by his determination to stay active and try new things. As runners, we can learn from his mindset and apply it to our own training. Maybe it's time to pick up a new hobby or challenge ourselves in a different way?

I couldn't agree more. It's amazing to see someone like Stenmark still pushing themselves at 68. It's a great reminder that age is just a number and it's never too late to try something new. Maybe we can apply that same mindset to our own running goals.

Totally agree, his mindset is really inspiring. Trying new things can help prevent plateaus.

Dude's a legend, but pole vault? That's not exactly a natural transition from skiing. Still, props for trying something new at 68. Maybe I'll take up knitting.

Yeah, pole vault's a stretch, but hey, at least he's not just sitting on the couch. Maybe he'll start a new trend for retired skiers.
