Having found myself with lots of time I've enjoyed upping the running and then when plantar fasciitis got me added mountain biking. Was really enjoying that, took a few tumbles but always recovered.
Wednesday took a bad launch, concussion and broken collarbone. Pain meds make me barf so I've opted to do the surgery to hasten the healing, also have a trip to see grandkids in four weeks so want to be whole for that. Leaving for the surgery in an hour.
I guess I'm pretty bummed out by all of this. At 62 do I have to just go for nice walks in the woods? I know a lot of folks have serious chronic problems that make this insignificant, I just feel sort of trapped all of a sudden. I'm just curious as to who over 60 is still doing stuff that is resulting in injuries? As in, should I just give this up? Part of my being unsettled by all of this is that I have NO idea how it happened. WHAM and I was flying. After I recovered I looked for what I hit (where IS that brick wall) and found nothing, but given my addled mind I'm not surprised. I wear a Garmin so can return to the scene of the crime and will do to see what may have happened.
I just never thought 62 was too old to still be doing stuff like this, or am I crazy?
