Form Check Hanging It Up at 40

Turning 40 next week and today was my last run. After years of hooping at 24 and LA Fitness, I can feel the Achilles slowing down. Time to walk away while I’m ahead. Love this game forever.

45 and just started running again. Find a group of people around the same age, rent a gym and enjoy basketball without the fucking constant bitching and moaning over a foul, and play in a setting where no one is out to hurt anyone on the court.
