Today I'm pretty old.
I did a run yesterday barefoot style. My calf muscles really felt it, and this morning they were trying to kill me.
I was glad it was raining heavily, creating an excuse for me not to ride my bike to work. Stairs have been a challenge all day.
No Jiu-Jitsu today, just a Karate class. I can make it work fine for the hour and a half of training, but then will go back into shuffle mode.
I'll run again on the weekend, and my legs will punish me less. They will have given up and will let me do what I want.
Bodies do this. They do it more if they are old ones.
There is no rain predicted for tomorrow, so I'll be biking.
No excuse available.
I am a 68 year old retired teacher living on the west coast of Canada. I spent over 30 years as a student of Karate until my knees stopped liking it. My current passionate activity is Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, which I've been at for about 13 years.
