I'm 37, 6'1", and a very average 185 lbs. I'm awkward and young looking (the average guess based on extensive surveys and statistical analysis is 26). My last relationship ended because I wanted to do the big crazy adventures and she wanted to settle down. I get it, we're already late in the game for that. I have health problems that will probably lead to disability in 10-20 years, so honestly I would rather prioritize the adventures over starting a family, even if that means the latter never happens for me (I think it would take some kind of medical breakthrough to convince me that that's even a good idea). My idea is to do pseudo-retirement, where I still work to support myself, but do not otherwise compromise one bit on the adventures.

What kind of adventures? I like to be in the woods and in the mountains. I do over an hour's worth of hard hiking or biking daily. Despite this, I'm not really about pushing myself to the absolute limit or past it. I want to stay more towards the type 1 end of the fun spectrum (no thru hiking of the AT for me, day hikes or even a few days of backpacking would be up my alley, however!). I like to be insanely active in a way that is sustainable, fun, and feels good. I'm average - not super fit because my diet isn't the best despite my high activity level, but I'm hoping to improve in that area.

I don't have a solid type. Just someone who can get on board with my lifestyle and can maybe deal with the fact that I may have more serious issues down the road. I don't need someone who can keep up with me (but it's a plus). I'm not fast, I just have stamina ;). I don't trail run for instance. Too hard on the knees. Maybe you're in a similar boat of having a limited healthspan/lifespan and just want to YOLO your heart out with a partner. Maybe you're living enough in the moment that you don't care about my situation. Or you're an older lady who like younger guys ;).
