Don’t run.
Bike. Swim. Hike walk row play tennis or other sports
Running destroys knees and ankles
My feet are literal train wrecks so I started riding a bicycle a year ago. At 61, I’m preparing to do my first century ride in April. Since the weather isn’t nice, I’ve been training inside using a fluid trainer and Zwift. Over the weekend I did two rides with big climbs, a total of 5600 feet in elevation.

So strange - i’ve run many thousands of miles in my life and my knees and ankles are holding up just fine. yet i know people who have never run that have had joints replaced.
I do cringe when i see people running on concrete. And i knew a guy (with a degree from MIT) who insisted on running in combat boots. Now running may well destroy those people’s joints!
