The Athletic Side

[GHMonkey]

so i know how many of us are gamers, and when some hear we are gamers they assume we are not athletic at all. I hate this assumption because i spent years on multiple teams and still compete from time to time. i spent a lot of time on the lacrosse team. my question to you is do you or did you play sports, or have you faced the same judgments?

I use to do Target Achery, and got pretty good at it. I won a few awards too.
But I lost interest unfortunately, though I might take it up again in a few years.

I don't currently play sports, but I'm still very athletic.
And due to my laziness, I have faced judgments like that.

WEEEEELLLLLL
Soccer which I detested for most of my grade school years
Then volleyball and Basketball for Middle school. Again, hated it
Rowing for freshman year, this one wasn't so bad, but I have my reasons for quitting
and cross county last year, and that one fun too, except I was just too damn slow.
I'm not fat as a house or anything, I may not have wash board abs, but I consider myself healthy.

I play football and cricket for the university. I run every weekday mornings an hour before lectures and I kayak on the weekend mornings. Asides that I am in the armed forces. So yeah, you could call me athletic.

Also I parkour.

I used to play B Team Rugby (as tight head prop) in high school.

Then I gained a load of weight, mostly because sport wasn't mandatory anymore.

Nowadays I'm trying to regain the glory of my 14 year old self. To this end I have shed one stone and two inches off my waist, and will continue to do so until I resemble a fit human being.

I don't play sport though. I ocassionally rock climb and spend most of my time burning calories at the gym or weights room.
