[quote=Anonymous]I research this area. For research purposes, elderly is generally considered 65+, and the 85+ are often called "oldest-old". Source: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6301865/#:~:text=Although%20there%20are%20different%20ways,oldest%2Dold%20%5B5%5D. But on a personal level, I agree that it varies a lot. People in their 30s and 40s can be more or less healthy, but after 50 the variance explodes. I'm in my early 50s and I see people my age who have trouble getting around, but also active people in their 70s who are stronger and faster than the typical 35 year old. I know there are no guarantees, but my goal is to be comfortable going on 5 mile hikes when I'm in my 80s. [/quote]
