As long as I can still carve lines in fresh powder, I won't complain about my age (50 in 2 weeks).
Don't feel bad, Dave. It happens to all of us. I used to be able to put my leg up on the mantelpiece as a show of how limber I was. I could do back bends and cartwheels all over the backyard. And rise to a standing position from sitting cross-legged, without using my arms to push myself up!
Not. Any. More.
I do, however, still roll down the grassy hills in my grandkids' backyards and go down those same hills on a flying saucer when they're covered with snow.
I keep active as much as I can because it is true: If you don't use it; you lose it.
Interestingly I was just thinking about this. No, not that you are old, but that I will be 50 in December.
I remember somebody in college telling me the day after my 20th birthday that I was halfway to 40.
Remember when 40 was old?
Funny, I don't think myself as old, but, like you, there are days when my body certainly does.
While the mind may tell us we are young, the body knows, and says otherwise...
Somedays the noise from the creaks and groans can be quite disconcerting...
And yes Shaw, the key is indeed to keep moving...
