Re: [HJ] coming back at 47

Kerry, I came back at 46. So this sounds familiar. I was fortunate enough to win 5 National medals 3 in high jump and 2 in the triple jump. On the down side now I've been told I have a torn meniscus. I don't know if it's my 25 years of plumbing or the competitions. I would advise a consultation with your doctor or a good physical trainer. I'm also curious as to if you have jumped lately. 2.00 is a lofty goal. Only 2 people have done it at your age. Good liuck. Train well. Craig Levine (M50 HJ possibly retired)
