Question: When you turn 96, how do you celebrate? If you’re LifeNut model and current “guinea pig” Mike Fremont, you simply run a 10K. Yes, he’s still going strong, proving that a LifeNut lifestyle offers plenty of fun and vitality, hardly a life confined a wheelchair, a nursing home, or some other dreadful prison.
Ever the humorist, Mike, currently in Florida for a few more weeks, emailed me, “Did a 10K race (maybe the 20th time down here) and told all the staffers along the way ‘Nobody’s passed me yet!’ An 80-year old beat me in the 80 and over bracket but they gave me a ceramic commemorative cup. Maybe it was for second place.”
As for me, I recently launched a new website, dedicated to fine art, which keeps my ikigai alive. If you like art, you can subscribe to my artsy newsletter at that site –

Being old can be fun!
