The Moment you Realized Time was Catching You... (Merged)

Today, when I couldn't run because I injured a knee.

I am now limited to half marathons because every time I get over 100 miles a month, I start getting these niggly little injuries. This one doesn't feel like cartilage but rather just runner's knee. But its a sign that over 50 is starting to catch up with me.

But, screw that, I love my long weekend runs especially and, if my body is going to give up, then its gonna find that I'm going out kicking and screaming and I'm not taking any prisoners.

At my Job I'm not going to be getting a salary anymore, but will be on almost (there's other benefits that make it better though) full commission. I don't get paid if I don't work anymore.

I was driving with my 2 kids about 3 weeks ago and it suddenly hit me that however I perform in my Job from now on affects their lives forever. I suddenly felt so responsible for so much and the feeling hasn't left me. Coincidently I have hardly left work since. I'm enjoying working more as well.

I realized time was catching me when I replaced my gym workouts with gym rehab sessions... I used to focus on what muscle groups I wanted to build that day.. now I have to work on the ones that don't hurt that day...

Damaged muscles and tendons used to take days to weeks.... now takes months... sucks

I realized I was getting old at my wedding 12 days ago (reason I haven't posted much lately:sad2: ). At my reception I realized that I was the last person to get married out of all of my friends. So much so we didn't even do that bouqet toss and garter belt thing since there was maybe 3-4 single people total at my wedding.

But then about 15 shots later I was feeling much better :drunks:
