Age: just numbers

At 76, Ann Zacher didn't question her ability to break boards with her bare hands during her tae kwon do black belt test in February.

Nor did she question her ability to take up tae kwon do five years ago, at age 71. Or, for that matter, to singly raise three young children 40 years ago, after her divorce, on wages earned as a typist for the County of Ventura.

"I believe in positive thinking," Zacher said. "You can handle so much if you just realize how much strength we have, it's just the idea of always accepting you can do things."

"It's just so interesting to see the things that anyone can do. It's got nothing to do with age."
