Greetings all!

Great forums you have around here.

I'm a 34 yr old guy who's been active his entire life with small bouts of inactivity due to back problems.

I'm at the point in my life where I realize that my back (and knees and shoulders) are going to hurt if I work out or sit on my ass, so I may as well stay active and take the good with the bad.

With that in mind I'm in the process of preparing for a "marathon" of sorts - trying out for 5 Single "A" Pro hockey teams next summer. I had the opportunity to do it when I was in college but didn't go for it. I'm not delusional. I'm 34. They won't sign me. I'm just doing it for the personal challenge.

take care all

It's nice to have someone who challeneges themselves and is willing to do so even knowing the outcome isn't grateful.

Well, I got myself back into such shape, that by this past January I was playing in two seperate local amateur leagues in prep for my Single A tryouts.

And then something wonderful happened. I found out (the hard way) that I could skate fast. Real fast. Fast enough to break my damn hand. So tryouts, as far as single A Pro goes... there won't be any.

Not for pitty, just an update. Guess I'll try for next summer's tryouts. Back to the cardio + legs in the mean time.
