That's a great analogy. Achieving fitness and sports goals as we get older is very satisfying. It proves the vast potential of our bodies and that many allow them to just rust out or use a variety of excuses why they're no longer able to be active.
As we get older we hopefully get wiser and, as you allude to, proper care is important to avoid injuries. I get injured far less now than I used to when I was younger. I'd also kick the butt of my 25 or 30 year old self!
