Today was my 81st birthday. I had a cardiologist appointment this morning and this afternoon, my insurance company sent a nurse/PA to my house for an in-home health assessment. I got asked the question if I had fallen within the last 12 months. Sure, many times, but only had to go to the ER twice. I don't think the guy was into trail running. After he left, I went to the park and ran 5.2 miles on the roads.
