no he does nothing apart from his armchair & trolling.
Over-50’s are pretty common in Tough Mudder (and other mud runs) in the US. I walked part of one with an over-80 woman who was doing her second one that weekend. She was an exception, of course, but over 50 isn’t rare at all.
You don’t need figures to prove that some people in a group do a specific thing.

How many do something? What are the figures?
What method could you get there in 4 hours? And which Ice Cap are you referring to? I'm looking for flights to greenland, and failing to find any that would take me from the UK to Greenland in 4 hours, not including boarding time, time to get to the airport, time to leave the other airport, and time to get a taxi out to (or walk to or bus or whatever) to the nearest ice cap. The best I could find is a 24 hour flight with a stop in reykjavik. If there's one in iceland, it's only like a 2 hour flight to reykjavik, plus bus time. Assuming that there was a flight available directly when you stated it, since you said you could get there in 4 hours, not that travel time for a planned trip is 4 hours.
I'm assuming that you're still in the UK though. I think I remember you saying you travel a bit. If you're in, greenland already that's a different story. And if you were in like texas when you posted that, you're way off.

i remember a bodybuilding forum i wrote on there was a few guys on there in the US who did competitions military style shooting, timed speed marches...etc.
they loved it. they of course trained differently to a Gym rat. more cross fit type training, kettle bells, rope climbing. cross fit is another competition that older people compete in.

the jury is rather out on cross fit, coz of the terrible lifting technques that abound
i consider you likely to end up very fit with a number of life long skeletal issues,
that and they have special plates made that look a lot heavier than they are, which makes it hard to judge off blury video

every sport that pushes limits has risks. doing nothing like you has risks.
some of these people are in great shape at an advanced age. more importantly they are enjoying a better quality of life. I honestly do not know why you are even on here. you are a bitter person who has not reached anything in life so you give only negative vibes out on here.

we are discussing fitness, i cant see why you cant do that with out making it personal, but hey ho it is what it is,,
but,,,, anyway back to topic,,, speed weight lifting, that doesnt require good lifting techniques is a terible idea for a sport, if the purpose of that sport, is to increase the quality of your life, now and going forwards

looking at the quality of your posts you are a guy who goes around the threads picking arguements not discussing it. you even wrote on one thread, well i´m right then honestly mate you have no life. do you even train in any martial arts or have you ever trained? Sitting on your arm chair playing with a bullworker is not the same as climbing a rope is it? The Actor charles bronson was known for his push ups & rope climbing long before cross fit was invented. look it up. he was muscular & ripped. sorry mate but i just can´t take you seriously

no thats that unlikely to be a record, though i admit i havent research cycling records, but i really doubt it, its just a nice way to spend a week or so, cycling the canal network,( flat) and my dog can come,anyway i thought you also were going to cycle 300 miles too? or is this another record?
im doing sprinting coz it only takes up a few minetes of my day and i can do it whilst walking the dog, so it doesnt at all get in the way of my other activities .
so whats your fitness goal for the year ?

i see you numerous abilities dont extend to working the quote function?anyway i thought you also were going to cycle 300 miles too? or is this another record?
i spend a big chunk of my life listening( and trying to play) to music, i tend to do things, that multi task with that,
i do exercises, that if possible dont require me to stand up much, you can do a considerable amount whist sitting down,
when i do stand up, every hour or so, i do some strengh exercises, whilst waiting for the kettle to boil,or on my way back from the toilet. then i take the dog out and either cycle or sprint train, dependent on my mood and the weather,
