I hope to be able to climb 60 routes when I reach 60. Very impressive list too.
On my 53rd B-Day I did 53 routes in less than 12 hours (with the help of several friends). All trad routes from 5.8 to 5.12a (all lead or soloed) at Josh. Probably the best (most enjoyable) single day of climbing at Josh I've ever had.

You are way out of my league sending 12s in your set of 53. It's amazing what we older guys can sometimes pull off! Last years 61 route challenge was in a gym since it was too hot out here in the southwest heat - 61 routes in 6hrs 15 min:
20 top roped 5.9, 11 Lead 5.9 = 31 x 5.9
19 top roped 5.10, 12 Lead 5.10 = 30 x 5.10
3 lead falls, one top rope fall
