At one point or another I have done the following:

swimming (free and back)
ballet
100, 200, and 400M sprints
softball (centre field)
ultimate frisbee
volleyball
soccer (midfield)
hockey (RW)
fencing (foil)
downhill and cross-country skiing

But now I just do:

rock climbing
ice climbing

And what's funny is I don't consider myself to be an athletic person. :p

Running, mountain biking, and weight lifting sport wise. I'm also into computers (as a hobby and as a job) cars (as a hobby, and I have much to learn) and travel just about anywhere. Oh yeah, I read alot too. (well, about climbing anyways. Contrary to what my gf says, Rock&Ice and Climbing do in fact count as fine literature.) :P :wink:

Sports: Caving, Backpacking, Snow Jumping (winter sport where we would pile snow up into huge piles, loosly of course, and jump off of the roof into it. I do not recommend trying this. Many of us got broken legs as a result), sled riding (I'm not coordinated enough to ski), Running.

Other: Singing, Carpentry, Building and programming computers, Trivia (NTN at your local bar. Also, the Great Guinness Toast is this friday. Join in The World's Largest Simultaneous Toast)

Before I started climbing I was the biggest hiking/backing bum. I hiked all over the swamps of LA, the AT in 2 states, hiked all thru TX, ME, UT, AR & CO. I guess I never really got all of that wandering around by myself out of my system. So aside from climbing I still love backpacking, camping and hiking, especially across mountain passes! The difference between then and now though is that I always carry my climbing shoes with me just in case an opportunity should arise to climb along the way.

I like all sports especially baseball and basketball. I am really into music also. I play guitar and drums and write songs. I also sing in the shower. I love all outdoor sports, including mountain biking and hiking.

I played baseball in college at the university of Oklahoma and so I like to keep active in playing softball which is fun especially when your drinking beer. I also like to mountain bike, kayak and looking into video production for the outdoors.

Well, I love to ski!!!!!!!!!!!! I also workout and walk a lot. I like softball and swimming, although I don't do it very often. I also love horseback riding, however I am currently without a horse. Photography, scrapbooking, and reading are my non-sports activities. Oh, I love to drive, does that count? I'll take a road trip anyday as long as I can drive part of it. :)

I like most anything outdoors, primarily: backpacking, hiking, caving, canyoneering, frisbee golf (it's golf without the snobbiness, fat wallet, and cheesy pants) camping, and sand volleyball. I also love music, reading, & chess. As for indoor sports I like basketball. Well, and of course I enjoy beer & good sex, but not in that order.

For me I would have to say.... Archery.... I love it!! If I can't climb I shoot my bow. Works great in the winter when I can't climb. Plus it keeps me in shape!
