Not regularly exercising after I finished high school. You should definitely do that. The time to start really exploring all the cool stuff your body is capable of doing is before and during its peak, not as it slides down the slope into the trough of old age. I find myself wondering how fast I could have run a half marathon 20 years ago if I'd become a runner then, but I'll never know.
I regret not beating out a fellow photographer for the cover of National Geographic, but there isn't much I could do to change that one, it's just one of those "damn, my best wasn't quite good enough" moments. But fortunately photographic ability doesn't decline with age, though the relevance of the medium might.

Side note from a few days ago: Sebastiao Salgado (72) believes photography in process of extinction http://latino.foxnews.com/latino/entertainment/2016/10/28/sebastiao-salgado-believes-photography-in-process-extinction/ http://latino.foxnews.com/latino/entertainment/2016/10/28/se...
- usgroup 10y agoIf you spent your times running marathons in your 20s and 30s, you'd have a good chance of being in for a total hip / knee replacements in your 40s. Swings and roundabouts!
- ASpring 10y agoIs this actually true? I always see it bandied about without data.
- usgroup 10y agoAnecdotally. A friend is a surgeon. Does knees and hips. Says patients are getting younger. E.g. late 30s for total knee replacement is no longer uncommon; usually endurance athletes.
- strongai 10y agoAgain anecdotally, I have a keen running doctor friend in the UK who had 2 hip replacements by the time he was 40. Now that he's in his mid 50s, he's looking at replacements for his replacements.
