67-year old Grandma Joyce

Yes Grandma Rocks! And she swims, and she swims fast and strong. And she wins medals too. But it’s not about the medals. Then why where so many 50-85 year olds out in the rain, cold, and downright inclement weather this morning to swim at theTucson Senior Olympics.

Because they could! – and it’s also about friends, family, companions, teammates, meeting new people, staying healthy, challenging yourself, pushing your personal limits, getting nervous, slowing the aging process, being young at heart, discovering something new about yourself, feeling the accomplishment, experiencing the joy, having fun, and living life fully.

Hey, I wouldn't miss this. The water is 82!
