Ooh...aaah...another football injury...

I am just beginning to wonder if I can still do this....play football. Am i too old? I just keep getting injured it seems. This week whilst playing 5-a-side football and striking the ball I felt a sharp pain in my lower abdomen and crumpled to the floor. I was unable to carry on. Pain, frustration and disappointment. Fortunately that evening I was with a doctor friend who quickly diagnosed Groin Strain (and non activity and pain for weeks - more ouch!). Once a part of us is injured or wounded or not working we suddenly find how much we take it for granted and find fresh appreciation and wonder for that part. So should I finally just play golf as Beverley says? Ask me in 6 weeks...
