Will "average shape for a 57 year old guy" cut it to go up Monadnock? My coworker who just did the hike is 66, but in very good shape. He claimed he was sore the whole weekend after the Friday hike.

Oh, boy. “Average shape” depends entirely on the sample. The average American doesn’t get much exercise, and the average American probably shouldn’t try to hike up a small mountain. OTOH if you can leave your ego at home, and turn around early, if necessary, with enough oomph left to get back down, then it’s just a nice walk in the woods. It’s also perfectly okay to spend five hours on a three-hour hike.
