Ive done running
and cycling
I did most at school, the only sport i really excelled at was football, as i turned about 13 i noticed i had got really fast and that no defender in our league could catch me if the ball was played through, i could play anywhere left,right, striker (need someone with me though) or holding (when i felt like being Mr.nasty) tackling was another strong point, could maybe have gone pro if id kept at it as i was about the same as one of my mates who went to Hungary to play prof. Ah well


Swimming, i sucked, bad.

Athletics, yeh 100m was good, anything over that i couldn't handle and long jump i was ok in too.

Javelin, was ok beat everyone in my year at school.

I pretty much sucked at everything else...
Archery - Haven't shot a bow in years but I was pretty decent with one. I was in scouts when I was younger and we had a "turkey shoot" every November. My brother and I always won. It may have helped that we had a bow at home with a target set up in the basement and the other kids almost certainly did not.

Baseball - Don't even want to think about this, terrible childhood memories. Couldn't hit, couldn't catch, couldn't throw. Got hit in the face with a baseball. Twice.

Cycling - Rode my bike everywhere until I got a car. Was never very good at long distances, though.

Football - Started playing when I was about 5 years old and was never afraid to get in front of someone about to make a kick towards the goal. Couldn't aim my kicks at all, though.

Shooting - Started competing April 2004 in Bullseye Pistol (standard one-handed stuff while standing still) and got semi-decent after 4 years (8" groups at 50 yards with a .45). I've since stopped in order to save time and money for motorcycle racing.
I tried to watch the Olympics. What an extreme sport it was! Having to deal with the TV controler and the popcorn at same time was a hard job.
Archery - When I was about 10. I was pretty damn good at it too. Was supposed to do some for Ridley Scott's Nottingham movie a couple of weeks back but filming was postponed so it never happened.

Athletics - I was always a good sprinter when I was a kid. Can't do long-distance though. Did some long/high jump/hurdles in school.

Badminton - Used to play after school for something to do.

Basketball - My favourite sport of all. Was in my high school's regional winning team. And you don't need to be 7 feet tall to play. Some NBA players are under 6ft, and the shortest I know of was 5' 2". I was a Small Forward, in case anyone's interested. I was a big fan of Penny Hardaway. Broke my finger playing in '97. We were hardcore.

Cycling - I used my bike a lot when I was younger. Not done it for years now.

Fencing - Briefly at a camp I went to. Boring.

Football - Yup. Bit of goalie, bit of defender, bit of forward. Never that great at it. Broke my wrist playing goalie in '96 (half time Euro 96, Scotland v England).

Swimming - Love it. In a pool, in the sea, wherever. Can't do butterfly that well though.

Shooting - Never did clay pigeons, but I did a bit of targets when I was in the US in summer.

Volleyball - Only ever on holiday, but I enjoyed it when I played.

Never that big a sports fan, but I'd still play basketball now if I knew anywhere that had a team (other than the London Towers, because I'm not that good).
Archery - Never done

Athletics - Useless, apart from long jump, where I'm not quite so useless

Badminton - Senior's 3rd pairing ftw

Basketball - Despite the fact I'm only 5"10, I'm not that bad

Cycling - Love it. Still useless though

Fencing - Useless

Football - Love football, but doesn't stop be being useless.

Swimming - Yes. Badly.

Shooting - Never Done

Squash - pretty good

Tennis - Fairly Good

Table-Tennis - yeah - I rock at this hehe

Volleyball - Useless.
Fencing - I havnt done actual fencing, but I am highly experienced at sword fighting - there's slightly less finesse to my version of it though...

Shooting - I've shot some guns, but never for sport.

Squash - I tried once, I swetted soooo much, I seen dryer waterfalls!

Tennis - Sometimes I can play it, sometimes I suck more than a 10 dollar ...

Table-Tennis - For me a bit like tennis

Volleyball - When I was at school I had the most lethal serve and won entire games almost entirely on the serve, but my school didnt have a team. My PE teacher wanted me to try out for teams and stuff but I did so many other sports I never did.
erm most track events, Swimming, Archery, most throwing ones.

All at school apart from archery
Well, we do some volleyball/badminton and throwing at school, but at sports I'm more useless than a table.
Archery - Can't trust me with a bow

Athletics - I can jump mlol

Badminton - Wtfux

Basketball - Boring to watch, frustrating to play

Cycling - I got some nice steep hills around my house i can go 30-45 mph on. maybe faster

Fencing - I've jumped some fences in my lifetime

Football - Oh no...

Swimming - fear of something coming from under me and eating me

Shooting - I was good in Time Crisis back in the day

Squash - I'm allergic to those

Tennis - Okay at it

Table-Tennis - Okay at it

Volleyball - I always cheat and skip the serving postion whenever i can

I used to be ace at that, went through the whole game at the arcades when I was young only losing 1 life........well spent youth.

And face entire adulthood trying to get it back? :P
Athletics - I was never a good runner
TracknField - Highjump was quite funny, and long jump quite disapointing
Swimming - Im getting better. Butterfly's too difficult for me though.
Cycling - Im too slow for this.
Badminton - DAMN, That was fun
Soccer - Didnt shoot a goal, but got better end of last years season (playing in my class ofc)
Handball - Always liked it, never was good at it
Basketball - Wasnt really good, even if im 1'85 (meters^^)
TableTennis - Was much fun too, even if I almost ever lost, no matter who i played against.
Volleyball - I think I could be an acceptable blocker with some training.
I think that was it.
I always wondered why Motorsports arent in the olympics.

Real life is overrated. Relationships fail, pain is occured and there is no chance to go back and try again from a saved postion.

Lol, Good One!
Quote from Stefani24 :I always wondered why Motorsports arent in the olympics.

Because no one wants to put untested chemicals in their ride, but there are plenty of athletes that'll do it.

But it's the only place with decent booze.

Aahh, true, but then in my experiences booze leads to relationships failing and pain. Of course there is still no reset button, and getting the key into the front door becomes progressivly harder.
