My best skill is knowing how to recognize the early signs of pushing my limits. Something as simple as needing to reread a line of text tells me I am pushing too hard. I know that there are some things I don't do. I don't try to read fiction. I can't follow all the characters and get lost with the common overly descriptive terms.

We have a saying. "Is this a driving day ?" This relates to how well I am focusing on a task or thought. It usually relates to how well I sleep.

If you struggled with running, have you done anything to analyze your gait and foot plant ? The pounding from a hard foot plant can be a big problem. Plus, unresolved upper neck injuries can make the pounding a problem.

Without knowing anything more specific about your issues, that's the best I can say.
