I'm over 70 and my bicycling mileage and speed is whatever it is but have no concerns about how it might compare with others who choose to itemize and track such things. I am happy that I am healthy enough to ride almost every day, year round as much as I wish; to the swimming pool at the gym, shopping, library in town, or on occasion with my son who tows my grandchildren in a trailer.
I have all the time in the world and consider myself lucky to be free of any need to set, meet or compare arbitrary "performance" metrics/goals to enjoy my bicycling.
YMMV
