Stress to the body is GOOD in athletic activity up to a point. I think that it is easy to pass over the point where a person is doing something good for their health and get into an area of too much physical stress, which may be damaging to their system.
But, if a person can do it and TRULY enjoy it, then more power to them!
I think a whole lot of it is attitude. For myself, I spent 72 years on that "tundra" called Minnesota. Compared to that, this is heaven!

Good round of golf yesterday afternoon though. Few people on the course so I could play at my own speed (pretty fast, usually).
