Current mood: Curious
Previously I've done floorball, karate, gymnastics and tennis. Nowadays I do downhill skiing, snowboarding and gliding (=flying sailplanes). Gliding is super fun, but also challenging. You have to study quite a lot of theoretical stuff and then be able to apply it to practice. And of course flying isn't that easy to begin with. And there's obviously also one quite an interesting aspect to it: since sailplanes don't have engines, you'll have to find thermals to stay up. And if you can't, well, you're screwed up.

I used to do swimming, tennis and gymnastics, but can't find time for them now. For now, I'm just doing figure skating. Maybe I'll try for my school's squash team.

I'm a dancer, trained in ballet, hip-hop, jazz, and lyrical. I also used to be a cheerleader as well, though at my school the cheerleaders really didn't tumble or do anything fun so I thought it was a waste of time and quit.

I used to do tae Kwon do, gymnastics at one point, I used to cycle to and from school, football, and running. Don't do any of these any more (bloody kill-joy IB) but I have entered the ballot for 2013 London Marathon, so I'm gonna get out with my boyfriend a bit more after the IB and go running, play football etc. (wanna get on uni football team in September)...


Sports used to be my life, now I don't have time for my favourite things...

Pretty sure that running a marathon at age 15 is slightly illegal - you have to be 17 to run a half and 18 to run a full. It's to do with the amount of stress you place on your joints while running these distances, and younger people will most likely get very easily injured when running long distances. Unless I'm completely silly and youre talking about a mini marathon :-)
