The first sense of getting old
Today I had the realisation that I am getting old. I'm 26 so some might say I am still very young. And in most fields I would say that would be true. But I am old in the fact of playing sport at a competitive level. Yesterday at soccer I injured my thigh, to my limited prognosis I would say I have torn some muscle in my quadriceps. This has made me think I can no longer play sport and not have a high level of training combined to survive. Hitting the road for runs no longer does it (Mikey - I finally entered the Auckland half marathon). I am sensing the need to actually do some kind of gym work. So I now take on the task of looking at gym vs a home gym. I am not quite ready to hang up the boots yet!

Nah your young mate, look at Tony Hawk he's ages old now and Kelly Slater too, you have no worries. Just make sure you do that half marathon and you can still call yourself young!
Now that you put it in perspective. I have been out for 2 runs this week and only the 1st actually hurt, so not all is lost :) I am back in the game.
