I'm 64 and have recently come to the situation where I no longer think I can do a 5 hour solo century. The last time I did one was about 2 years ago.
I'm losing the ability and also probably the mental toughness it takes to sustain the effort over that time frame.
I still do sub-5 hour centuries with groups.
