Family football game over Christmas, many years ago. First play of the game I was at QB. Couldn't find anyone open, three guys rushed at 3 Mississippi, so I took off running like a 15 year old athlete.

Except l was a 35 year old non-athlete. Pulled both hamstrings, and went down like a sniper got me. That's when l knew I'd hit the brick wall.

I get to hear the story every Christmas.

A few years ago some friends invited me to play on their kickball team. I was just a tad out of shape and didn't think it was much of a big deal. Pulled a quad in the first inning running down a ball in right field.

Decided I needed to lose some weight and start doing athletic stuff again after that.

I pulled one so bad two years ago trying to teach my kids baseball team rundowns that it bruised my leg up. I thought I was going to need a call for a wheelchair. But I gimped on back to the truck.

I dont do that any more.
