1. When my staff is the same age as some of my friends' kids.
2. The fact that I have to wear makeup now or risk scaring small children.
3. The snap-crackle-pop sounds every morning, and the aches that go with them.

Then again, I'm still climbing and having fun, and for some reason haven't visibly aged.

we are in training. combination of hooking the dogs to a kick bike, myself and a speeded up trail run, or a downed log in the backyard to drag around for power.

so, yeah, skijor season is pretty much always on.

Realised today that the cup I was drinking out of is as old as most of my cohort.

Older probably than most of the undergrads on campus.
