I'm a fanatic windsurfer and a similar age to the OP, but have been laid off recently by injuries (just starting to get back). The idea of life without it seems horrible, and it terrifies me that this could happen one day. However weirdly for a few months over the winter I don't do any windsurfing because it gets cold enough that the pleasure of doing it is offset by the discomfort. I don't miss it too much as I guess I know I'll be able to do some more in a few months and it'll be a lot more fun then.It also allows my body to recover.
If I got to the stage where I couldn't, I'd take up some new sports that would hopefully give me the same buzz and satisfaction. I'm hoping to go on into my 60's though. I guess after that it will be golf and bowls!
In some ways new sports are more exciting as the learning curve is fast.
