Gwindor was described as, physically and mentally, a shadow of his former self after he escaped from his thraldom in Morgoth's dungeons. This may have been attributable to harsh living and working conditions and lack of food and drink, indicating that Elves are more physically vulnerable than some of us think. I think their mental state, too, has a great deal of bearing on their physical prowess, at least moreso than any other race, but that is a topic for another thread.
