Changeable

The other day during a daughter's basketball game I noticed a referee was not very agile.  He was able to keep up with 10 year-old-girls and did a respectable job calling the game.  At half-time he and I conversed about the aerobic ability of the players, or rather the lack of.  We agreed that young people had more choices of what to do in their free time and sometimes those options affect their ability to run at a pace for an extended period of time.  He alluded he longed for a  time when he could run a mile.  Opened my eyes.  Right now, my physical limitations are reversible.  His are not.  Another visual aid when I don't feel like runnng.
