Does building a stone retaining wall count as exercise for a 69 year old? I

can send a progress picture of it if you like. I don't think I can pass

though running tests however.

As many of you know, I have another life away from the keyboard as a

soccer referee. For the basic grade (i.e., you aren't working

professional games) there is no actual fitness test requirement, but

the tests are offered to everyone. The targets are based on your age

and on your grade, so for a 45+ guy who wants to move up to the next

level, I have to do the following things one after the other:

• Run 1800m in 12 minutes. That's 4.5 times around a standard track.

• Then run a 50m dash in 9.5 seconds

• Then run a 200m dash in 40 seconds.
