Since having open heart surgery in 2024 and missing the 24/25 skiing season, I have seen a decline in my snow skiing capability. This year, I have skied less than normal and have fallen as many times this season than cumulatively over the past 10 years. Not only have I fallen on the tougher slopes, but I have fallen getting off the lifts and even fell once just standing around. One time I fell twice during same ski run on a relative short but steep double black slope.
I realize now that I'm starting to experience significant declines in previous capabilities with aging and, in some cases, due to the heart surgery. I've learned time and aging doesn't wait. My solution is to get out more early and often to do the things I enjoy, before the inevitable decline prevent the ability to do so.
Oh well... it's off to skiing next week before spring weather comes and before another birthday happens.
