Wish I could say the same. I've got a shoulder injury that never healed right from going over a fence without the horse (Some horses are so polite, that upon coming to a fence, they allow their rider to go first). I've also got some back and neck problems from being rear-ended by an intoxicated driver in a "borrowed" car with out a license or registration! In this weather they bother me a bit. Just enough that I can usually tell you when it's going to get bad out there.
I won't hike outdoors again until after the first frost and even then only on cool crisp days, there's just too many ticks out there to be able to enjoy it anymore. Besides, I like that kind of weather. Hiking after a snowfall is great too - the world looks so different.
