I am pretty athletic
I am a figure skater- dance and singles. I was lucky to find a partener that understood that sometimes I just couldnt practice because of stuff that was going on in my life.
I play soccer, I am the goalie so it only apears that i am doing a team sport when in fact i am alone at my end of the field
I dance, and I am on the track team at school running hurdles and jumping high.
I dont do to well with team sports but my mom insisted on signing me up for quite a few
But i am really bad at a some sports like...
Basketball- i can aim like dead on but the ball always falls like 2 or 3 feet short of the net
Volleyball- grrrrr i can never hit it without hurting myself
and of course
Golf- i dont have enough patience to play a game for 4 hours straight... |

I don't do much in the form of team sports at the moment, but I have been running for the past year or so and have been lifting heavy for the past four or so months. Both have proved good results. Six + miles no problem while weighing not much under fifteen stone (210 lbs).
I couldn't survive without physical exertion any more. If I can't do either of the above for a week I rapidly descend into a depressive mood, and that is just horrible.... |

| i'm probably the fittest person i know as i run really fast and i'm the only 14 year old i know who can make their pecs dance. My favorite sport is boxing probably because of all the fights i got into in primary school, though i never get to practice. I also practice parkour/free running almost every day. |

| I used to be competative swimmer during highschool but I sucked and struggled to get faster a lot more then other people. I kinda wonder here and there whether my stuggles to get faster was related to being aspie. For swimming, Im not sure really at all how it would be related. But I have came to the conclusion that my stuggles with being a dancer was related to being aspie but Im not entirely sure how. |

| I am an autistic athlete. I run cross country and track; I was the best on the team my senior year. I play soccer on a team. Just this week end I played baseball, soccer, basketball, and ultimate firsbee. I usually play a sport every weekend with friends and family. Some sports I find harder than others. I don't like basketball all that much because I trouble with my motor coordination or my arms and can never shoo the ball very well and I also have difficulty dribbling. I have been running ever since I was 6 and now my coordination of my legs is very good. I am good at cross country, track, soccer, and ultimate frisbee. |

I'm quite athletic.
I play a lot of hockey (field hockey for those west of the atlantic )
We became champions this year and promoted
I also like to run (recently 7,1 km in 28:42 and 7,4 in 30:20 there was 6 hours in between the runs)
And I'm passionate about dancing,
Ballroom and Latin dancing
Classic Balley and Jazz
Allthough I'll stop with the last two because of time reasons |

I can't wait for my cross country season to start up again in the Fall. As of now, I'm base training for it. _________________ I am a 19 year old girl who lives in Washington State and was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome at 9 years old.

I'm totally not athletic now.
I just do not have enough strength for sports at all no matter how hard I try, in addition to zero hand-eye coordination.
But I did like being athetic a little more when I was younger. I was in martial arts for about 3 years and got to my purple belt before I had to leave.
I haven't totally given up though. I plan on becoming a DDR master
With my lack of coordination and stamina, it has taken me a few years to get where most people who play dance dance revolution start of at, but I just loooove the patterns!
Ok, it's not really athletic, but it's a start  |

i'm seeing a pattern here with xc and track. theres something about that individual activity that so many of us like. and then there the mental stamina to keep going, like an obsession.
i ran xc and track for all four high school years and ran my freshman year at palomar college (a jc). i'm starting my sophomore year this fall and am still running. my team has been traning together for a little over a month now. it feels like it really is season. im getting faster, but i never was amazing or anything special. i ran long (emphasize long) distance during track, as in the 10k was my specialty. 10k pr (personal record) 42:something, 5k: 20:23, 1500: 5:40, 3000: late 11s. i really should be better about remembering my times. |
