QOTD

Have you ever competed in any type of race/competition?

I've done a 5K and I used to twirl/dance/gymnastics  when I was younger and I was in the competitions. Nothing HUGE, but I still did them =)

Re: QOTD

  • Nope I guess not.

    I played volleyball in high school and was a captain for every game (in our league the coach would pick two co-captains for each game) but that is it we were not very good. Umm I ran for student council too but was usually unapposed. LOL

  • I did track and soccer in middle school and basketball 1 year in high school.  Other than that I haven't really done anything competitive.

  • I competed in riding events (eventing). I think the best I placed was 5th in dressage, and then 4th overall out of 17-20. And I'd always place 1st-4th in local smaller shows, little hunter jumpers and stuff. Wasn't my favorite, but good to get out and get experience. I showed ponies, and then my horse from 9yo, til 23. And I'm hoping to get back into littler shows once I'm given the okay to ride again, and get my fatty pants horse back into shape.

  • I sailed competitively in high school, both as part of the high school team and outside with the yacht club and on some larger boats.

     

  • I am not the competitive type but I did play softball for 11 years. I was the pitcher and quite good. I had umpires constantly telling my coach that I was the best in the state. My team was always making it into the city and state tournaments.
    I heart Ben!!

  • Yes :)

    I completed a 5K and a Half Marathon.  It was an amazing feeling.

  • Not really. I played in a gym hockey league in elementary school but that is it. My awful parents would not have picked me up from any sport.

    Played softball for 15 years, and now I play in an adult league...which is VERY competitive. I did play basketball and tennis in highschool also.
  • I played Soccer until I was a sophmore in HS.  At that point our team was really competitive and one of the best in the state, but I spent most of the game on the bench and it just wasn't fun anymore.  I still played ouside of school in much less competitive leagues through the rest of HS.  And back in JH played Baskeball too, but I was a little too violent and just decided to focus on soccer in HS.
  • Puggs! I twirled too! I was pretty good and I don't know why I quit when I was 12, I think b/c it wasn't the cool thing.  Then I ran track in high school so we had the normal meets and things. I was county champ for the 300m hurdles and held the record for a couple of years.

  • I ran track and played tennis in middle school. In HS my competitive focus shifted to music and there were lots of singing competitions and auditions for local productions when I wasn't in stuff at school.
