I’ll be 49 in 11 days and in my 40’s I’ve trained WadoKai karate and competed, taken up mountain biking and competed and started weight training and am looking forward to my 3 powerlifting meet this coming December. This is after 15 years of nothing but a desk job.
Yep. Started competing in powerlifting at age 43. Never played a sport or competed my entire life until then. I was more of the smart girl. Hard to believe, eh?
Wow Soldog and Kpsnap, sweet that you both figured it out! hahaha
Yes I recently came in contact with a bunch of old high school friends and it’s always nice to see the ones that changed there later life for the better and healthier now.
I coach high performance hockey programs and teach in two high school sports programs of excellence school for baseball/softball and lacrosse.
Today the general pe classes are painful.
I get the best and kids still need more work ethic and discipline.
I started playing rugby (D-II club) at 40. I started a lot the first year simply due to injuries and low numbers. 44 is just over a week away and I am competetive for a starting spot every week, even though our club numbers have nearly doubled. I am starting tomorrow vs. 3-0 Buffalo with a chance to clinch a playoff spot.
Sailing is a blast, lots here and the regatta’s are fun. Swiftsure International yacht race
Awesome some football and rugby.
Sadly no football here and only like one high school even doing football, just not a big sport here.
I always said I would have played it if I had it here, great sport.
Lots of rugby thou just loved hockey more and then a few other sports too.
Get to watch a few high profile matches. They def know how to drink.
Colin you watch “the boys of Fall” pretty sweet espn doc about high school football with pro players and coaches? Kenny Chesney produced it and has a vid/song out too.
