Sports

Don't think I did compete. I took lessons as a group when I was younger. I did it mainly for fun and enjoyment.
 
I used to play alot of football, mostly non-competetive stuff but I have played for a 5 a side team (which failed :p). I was a good swimmer and I swam for my school once and I also competed in running for my house-team at school. This was 3 years ago though lol, i'd be suprised if i can even run to the end of my street anymore haha
 
At the risk of being horribly redundant I'm going to talk some more about my obsession with martial arts.

I started my first system,Tae Kwon Do,when I was 25,did that for about 5 years,then moved on to a system called Kenpo.

I trained in several versions of that of that system for about 18 years, earning a black belt in one of them

along the way.

I now cross train in 3 systems, Kickboxing, Jiu Jitsu and Indonisian stick and knife fighting.

I'm really doing good for a 53 year old man but I am struggling with my weight right now.

I exersize enough but controlling what I eat and drink is tough.
 
I s'pose I have an obsession for Parkour/Freerunning. I've been climbing things for as long as I can remember, and I love the feeling of freedom associated with finding creative ways around obstacles.

I started Jujitsu when I was quite young, but I've never really had much interest in martial arts. I know it's self-defence, but I still don't like the idea of fighting.
 
I don't really like sport...I'm not coordinated so it kind of ruins it. I couldn't play sports in PE very well at all, and I usually ended up injuring myself from falling over.

I like swimming, but I can't do that too well either, again because of poor coordination. But Chris is teaching me, so I'm getting better. I learnt when I was small but I've never been very good, and the huge amount of years I spent not swimming made it difficult to go again.
 
Driving ranges are fun, from my experience as a non-golfer lol. My friend used to work at one, so I could play as much as I wanted. The ball-collecting machine (Quad bike with a cage and plough-like thing on the front) was fun to drive too. :D

This was shot last summer. Since then I've learned to somersault on flat ground... I don't have any vids of proper parkour though 'cause when I'm doing it I'm having too much fun to worry about filming.
