Is Q supposed to be meaningfully older than Mark? I know the synoptics all are believed to be taking from it, but I don't remember ever being told how distant of a predecessor it was imagined to be.

I think it's argued to be a sayings text like the Gospel of Thomas compiled in the 40s/50s. I've actually leaned towards scholarship by Mark Goodacre and others who argued against the existence of Q. His books and blogs have more on that, but he's pretty convincing.
