Calling all athletes! Former or still playing, we need to keep that competitive edge or get it back, how do you keep that "Eye of the Tiger"?

    I work to reach potential and just realize that best version of who I am no matter my age. I was a fighter some years ago, and though I no longer compete, I still have some fight. Success is a choice...

    Find something that you really love doing at your current age and train as if you were competing.

    Keep competing or at least participating in various events...whatever floats your boat. I've tried various running events, triathlon, cycling events, and cyclocross...I've definitely gravitated to primarily cycling events and cyclocross racing. If I can ever get my posterior tibial tendonitis under full control, I would like to do another tri...but every time I try to run, that *kitten* flares up...

    Yep, that's the challenge for me and most old guys. I had to switch things around a bit and compete with others on my level and age.
    It is what it is...
