Taylors resident John L. Thompson turned 81 last week, but it wasn’t your typical birthday party.
To celebrate, Thompson cranked out 81 push-ups, grinded through 81 chin-ups and completed an 81-mile bike ride to Lake Greenwood.
“It went well,” he said. “Got it done by about five o’clock, so not a bad day.”
