Baseball, basketball, and tennis in school. Soccer, softball, and basketball teams on occasion since.

And wait just a cotton-pickin' minute, IAKG and Steph!!! Band=Geek...I was in band and we "ROCK"ed. :D

Highschool ~ Archery, Tennis, Softball, Golf, Gymnastics, Volleyball... and even though I am not very tall, I dabbled in basketball for a while (till I realized Doreen Love was gonna stomp me every game cause she was 6'2" in 11th grade!). Then I took up being a hippie! LOL!

*EDIT* Oops! I forgot to add that I played in the "Juniors vs. Seniors" Powderpuff Football Game. The one and only year in the history of my highschool (to date) that the juniors beat the seniors! The reason? Yes there was a plausible excuse!!! Our senior class president made the senior girls some "special brownies" in his family living/cooking class that very day! Hmmmmmmmmmmm??? Sabbotage? Because he was dating a junior? We think so...but we'll never know cause he won't tell!

Now ~ Skiing, Scuba, Hiking, Fishing, Swimming (when I can...wish I had a pool *sigh*), Billards *Bar or regulation Pool*...never tried Snooker FussyYummyPants...but I'd give it a try), gardening (you don't know how much exercise that is till you have an acre to garden).

I also kept score and stats for my ex-husband's slow pitch softball team. I loved seeing the faces of the players when they found out their "hit" was judged an error! Talk about "IF LOOKS COULD KILL"!

Great thread Lilith!

So did we...some of my best high school memories, including a trip to Orlando and marching at halftime during the Citrus Bowl. Wouldn't trade it for the world. :)

I'm athleticly challenged. :p

I kept busy in high school with show choir and doing a lot of set-painting/stage managing/backstage stuff for the school musicals.

Lessee.... I did little league for a year, bowling for a few awful weeks (I just don't have the bowling gene in me), Dance classes for a few years in the elementry years, and then for years again in the late jr high, high school years. There was also about 6 years of gymnastics, 2 years of doing the hurdles and high jump in track, and a year of cheerleading.

I -think- that's all.

Gilly 03-26-2004 06:51 PM

OOo, also add a stint of kick boxing, and aerobics ;)


And, of course, chasing 3 kids around :D

Played football, my first love. I also ran track: quarter mile run, 4x4 relay, and hurdles (high and intermediate).

Now I just play golf. I also run and lift weights to stay fit. Proud to say that I am 38 and my waist is only 2" bigger than it was in high school (32 vs 30)....and I like beer!

I've played all the major sports. Foortball, basketball, baseball, Soccer...played some tennis too.

If bowling counts I'll beat anyone out there. ;)

Does chess count too? It makes your head hurt...

I came from a VERY small town and we were the big town in the area, so we basically had just the major sports - competitive only for the guys teams ... girls were intra (or is it inter) mural .... but I played basketball, softball and volleyball ... still volleyball is one of my favorite sports to either play or watch.

Lilith 03-27-2004 08:46 AM

We were so small we did not even have volleybal:p^^^

fzzy 03-27-2004 04:21 PM

We didn't either really ... that was a church league ... well, actually so was softball ....

Mae 03-27-2004 06:27 PM

Did the "then", and forgot to do the "now". Nowadays will find me walking and hiking, volunteer master gardening which includes, but is not limited to...very large shrub-chucking, face-dancing with assorted cactii, pick axe and auger breaking, and my favorite...weed-pulling. Aside from that, my 4 dogs keep me from sitting down or resting more than 10 minutes each day. I love to swim, but there's no place to around here.

osuche 03-28-2004 03:53 PM

I was in swim team, marching band (yes, it's a sport when you carry a 30 lb tuba!!!), and gymnastics (for two years) in high school.

Now I lift weights, golf, do Pilates, and am a Stairmaster addict! :D

campingboy 03-29-2004 02:21 PM

In high school I was on the Cross Country team, the swim team, and the sailing team.

Currently I jog, hike and sail. Swimming only if it is really hot, or if it is a hots spring.
