I think that at some point in everyones life, they suddenly realise they are mortal. That epiphonie for me was turning 40 this year. I've always felt that I was still young, and hadn't changed since my early twenties. Recently though I've started to feel for lack of a better word-"old". Little things have started to happen, and they happen so slowly you don't notice them. I like to bike alot, but now I find after going for a decent ride it takes me a day to recover so I'm not sore. There are probably two factors that contribute to this more than anything. 1) I'm so busy with work and getting the kids to thier sports that I don't get the time to exercise myself enough. 2) I try to keep up with my kids when we do go out, and it practically kills me(I don't remember being that athletic and full of energy when I was that age).
However, I don't intend to let this slow me down. The moral of the story is that the saying is true- You are only as old as you feel. And I still don't "feel" 40
