I at the ripe old age of 67, completed my first full IM event about a year ago (Nov 2015) in Panama City Beach, FL. It was a real bucket list event with the full gambit of emotions. I decided to relive the event by recording it as a rather lengthy (17 pg) race report, complete with pictures.
The executive summary is I did it, finished officially with a time of 16:25 and change. Due to a nagging foot injury sustained earlier in June, I ended up walking the entire marathon.
It wasn't the race I wanted, but it was the race I earned.
If you have read this far and want to subject yourself to all the gory details, email or PM me (I'm new to this forum, so I know even know if it supports PM)
The file is a PDF.
Good luck!
