Title: Do you do any sport?

Does a healthy mind actually equal a healthy body? We're mostly pretty smart here, but who actually does exercise regularly (not necessarily gym, mind; just anything that genuinely helps with fitness).

I've taken up Judo lately, which is good fun. Generally I'm allergic to sport, hate football with a passion (rugby was OK though). I'm pretty damn short and quite light too, about 5 foot six.

I was going to go to the gym today, but walking up a hill after looking at accommodation for next year nearly killed me so I decided against it. I wasn't out of breath or anything on the way up the hill, then at the top apparently forgot the whole breathing idea...

I really need to get fitter.

I have done all crazy stuff in my life.

Football (soccer), Horse-Riding, Sailing, Fencing

Football = 1 year

Horse Riding = 1 and 1/2 years

Sailing = 1 year

Fencing = 2 years

I also run around the place a lot and use bicycle instead of motorbike or the public transport.

So Dimos is fit! hehehhehe

The university I'm in has also some sports which I may join this or the following year. That's all folks!

PS: Also playing some guitar is a sport for me since it gives much energy and heavy desibels!  :P

I've done ITF Taekwon-do for 12 years now, currently a 3rd degree black belt. Trained with the WTF university club for 3 years as well. I did try out fencing, but couldn't get my head around not being able to move to the sides without going off piste!
