Feeling old and not even 25....


Lately I have been feeling a little old. Not mentally of course! but physically. Perhaps it was my step back into soccer that has flung my body into this feeling. The other day after my soccer game my 'bad' knee was bothering me way more then normal. For the next week it continued to be very 'arthritic' like. It would lock up on me, crack (which isn't that abnormal for me), and cause me tremendous pain. So what did I do to solve this problem? Go to the Dr.? NO I instead proceeded to go to soccer practice and hit the Ibuprofen bottle profusely. So now after thinking about this I've decided that perhaps I should choose a less stressful sport to continue into my "older" age:) I love soccer but it’s very rough on the body. So far in the past 2 seasons I have suffered a pulled hamstring, bum knee, and 2 mild concussions. So I have taken up climbing more regularly now and I start yoga on Monday! I'm soooo excited:) I've always wanted to try yoga so I figure what a better time. And it’s still very difficult mentally and physically. So I'm ready for the challenge...and maybe it will help me climb better too
