Go for Fitness: Ray Clark hits his club at age 98

Every once and a while, I come across a feel good story--a fun fitness story at that.

At age 98, Ray Clark  lost his wife and then lost his daughter.

Bored  at home, Ray joined a local fitness club in Gaithersberg, Maryland.

Today, he is "able to curl 40 pounds, work out vigorously on a rowing machine and deftly pluck bouncing  eight-pound kettle bells from the air with the hand-eye coordination of a much younger man."

Catch the story and a video in this Washington Post story.
