How did I get to the point that the once highlight of my year was becoming my demise??? I used to think about this soccer league year-round with excitement and halfway through this summer season I started thinking I may be done with it forever. How does that happen? Am I really too old? What is causing this anxiety and terrible fatigue on the field? Am I fueling incorrectly? Maybe it's because I haven't been running lately. This was a problem I just could not solve. I felt like my performance was in a downward spiral and I wasn't sure I could recover.
