Up until 6th grade I was a weakling. Then in 7th and 8th I started running. I did track and cross country, and in 8th grade even played football.

My school has a "jog-a-thon" fundrasier every year (you get sponsors and run, and earn money based on how many laps you run in an hour). Well, I broke the school's record for most laps done . It used to be 34 in one hour, I did 40. (400 meter laps, a fourth of a mile)

My mile time is 5:39.

For football, I played on the line even though I weigh 120 lbs, against guys that weighed 160+. It was really fun, they hated hitting me because I'm so bony and it hurt .

Next year (going to highschool) I probably have to drop football because I'll be too small (unless I work out during the summer, then I have a chance). And I definetly intend to run track and cross country all four years.

Well thats my brief sport's history, cause you asked

Air-rifle, Soccer, Running 60 Meters.

I've also tried Judo and Aikido.

Though, right now I believe I am rather inactive in these things.

I am going to start training as soon as I emptied my garage.

Then I will do some boxing.

I "ran" track. Lol. More or less did my little event, and used more energy yelling for my bf to break his 4:48 mile lol. Good luck Future Ranger, I have now given you a new record!

I in no way have my mom's running abilities... she did a marathon (26 miles) in 3:07.... oh sh*t is all I can say

My dad threw me into sports since I was 6. Mostly athletics, which he believes to be the king of all sports. Then some basketball, and biking.
I live near the beach so I have always been swimming a lot.
At the age of 14 he made me go workout in a gym ( body building ), and I still do that every day.
Goes without saying, my father's been elected responsible for sporting activities for our county for decades.
