64 on August 10th when I will do what Donini says is a losing proposition since it gets harder each year when you really want it to get easier. I'll try to lead 64 pitches. I got in 63 pitches of 5.10 last year but allowed up to 10 laps per route. At 60, I lead 60 unique routes but didn't restrict the grade. It is getting pretty tough but it keeps me working out all spring to get ready. Use it or lose it.

I'm 69.5. Been climbing since July 1957, so coming up on 56 years. Eeek, I've been climbing longer than the median age here.
Tetons, first climb!

Fifty one this year. Off the climbing right now with an injured pulley, dang it.
Cycled the Rocky Mountains last year. My wife turned sixty right after we finished.

Sadly, my bold call for women train for this, together with my incredible offer to supply the wisdom of the ages (or should that be "of the aged"), has resulted in a net total of 0 responses.
Your hat is looking safer by the day John.

Too much exercise can do that.

Since I see some mathematicians on this page, I'll disclose my age using a meta-puzzle. Those not mathematically inclined can discern my age from other posts on this forum. If there's no interest, I'll disclose the answer later:
Wizard A and Wizard B were riding on a bus. Wizard A started bragging about his kids, and Wizard B made the mistake of asking how old they were. Wizard A replied, "I'm not going to tell you, but the sum of their ages equals the number on the bus, which you know, and the product of their ages equals my age, which you don't know."
Wizard B thought for a while, then asked "If I knew your age and the number of children you have, then would I know their ages?" Wizard A replied, "No, that's not enough information." Wizard B then stated, "Ah! Now I know your age!"
On Father's Day, I will turn an age equal to Wizard A's age plus the number on the bus, plus two (2).
