How do you deal with injuries as you age?

Posted Nov 04 2009 10:04pm

I used to heal quickly.  As a cross country runner through fields, farmers roads, over and around obstacles, I would injure myself on a regular basis.  A strain here, an ankle twist there.  Within a day or two I would be back on the road.

Eventually,  after twenty plus years of abuse my body said enough of this running stuff and turned my ankles and knees against me.  So I moved on to other things.  Hiking, yard-work, walking and just about anything to stay active.  A few years in a hard external martial art, and eventually to Tai Chi.
