Hope you have a speedy recovery and yes, getting old does suck and that`s why I have a very serious work out routine that keeps my joints tendons and muscles strong to help me avoid injury. I have a shoulder injury from football that haunts me from time to time and lifting weights and stretching helps me work through it. After s.w.a.t. beat my a$$ I had a fractured wrist and 3 years later,it`s finally feeling better. Yes, getting old sucks so get well so you CAN get back to track and get some laps in.
