Do you consider yourself an athlete?

In light of that "grown men" thread, I decided to create a little less intense thread.

So, do you consider yourself an athlete? The definition is up to you, whether you're skilled at very active sports (football, basketball, soccer) or sports like golf, darts, etc. And no, I don't mean to downplay golf or darts... I respect all sports.

I think I am a good sprinter. Or at least I was. I need to start training again.

I do, im great at cardio but im no weight lifter

Yeah. :) I got 12.12sec in the 100m when I was 14, and it was good enough to get me 1st place in my school division. Also got 1st in the 200m and 3rd in Long Jump. And I play hockey in the winter. :)

Im just in Louisiana. Hangin out in the deep south :D Only seen snow a couple of times but whatever, I make up for it with our vacations to the Rockies.

To answer your practice question we did a 3 mile Indian run, plyometrics, and then our ab workout.

yes i do. i play many different sports such as tennis, volleyball, soccer etc. and im an above average player.

No, I'm a mathletexaos

Kind of the opposite actually. I've always been pretty clumsy at most physical sports but I do have a strong physique and work out quite often.

Just kidding

I play hockey and paintball... so yes!

Track and field! I was a captain in high school. I did the shot put and discus events. Anybody else a thrower? :)ssc0n

That was awesome.

Although I hated the sphere (if thats how its called in English).

3 miles? That's a long run. But not as long as the Dawe run. But I mean, just for practice, that's really long. Good job. :)

YES! ha I've done sports all my life played soccer for a few years, played baseball all the way to highschool, then switched to wrestling, quit after my sophmore season because of knee, wrist, shoulder and neck injuries :P Now I just lift everyday (4am baby!). But yes I weight about 145 lbs and bench 175lbs so I would def consider myself somewhat fit hehe

They really arent bad if you just jog, but we have to maintain a 7 minute pace and are often told to sprint at certain times :P

I have still yet to pass out or throw up. Hell yeah for my God like stomach :D

Im an athlete with nerd benefits :P :)

Wanna run 4 miles tomorrow with me? :|

Nope, I consider myself the opposite. Running is one of my most hated activities, and I'm not competitive at all.
