Didn't really do much of anything before middle school. There, I did basketball and track. High school, I did CC all four years, track the first three and wrestling the last three. Out of all of them, wrestling is the one I wish I'd started earlier. I SUCKED at basketball, but because a lot of my friends were on the team, I tried to force myself into it. Seemed like with wrestling, right when I felt I was starting to get a bit good, my senior season was over, so I really would have liked to have started three years earlier (at least, doing youth wrestling would have been better, but I just didn't have any interest in doing any sports stuff until seventh grade) to see how far I could have gone. I guess I also wish I actually had some comprehension of health/nutrition/weight-training back then too, since I could have been 2 or so weight classes lower and a decent bit stronger if I'd been properly training by today's standards.

First weekend of youth baseball games and how about this for an early nomination of Coach of the Year.

What a miserable 10 hours in 35-40 degree weather.....
