There’s an age that I would have done it.
In my 20s I jumped out of airplanes, bunjee jumped from a hot air balloon, and ran with the bulls in Pamplona.
But these days the most dangerous thing I do is Aqua’s sister.

Dierdre Wolownick, Alex Honnold's mother, started climbing at age 60 and is the oldest woman to climb El Capitan (first at the age of 66 and then, breaking her own record, again at age 70)
