I'm 44 and I know I can do the full 48 if I am motivated. I love DX contests
and the CQWW and ARRL DX are weekends I look forward to all year long.
Motivation is not a problem for me. I did run into some circulation problems
that scared me over the weekend. I'm thinking that I need to eat healthier as
well. I know for a fact that some guys even do some physical conditioning.
Maybe getting and staying healthy would improve stamina and mitigate the health
risks.
I also know that this is easier said than done. What I think some guys are
trying to say is that they might risk a heart attack or stroke, etc. if they
attempt the full 48. I wonder how I would feel if one of my friends went SK
due to pushing too hard.
