My Recreational Interests

You may consider my recreational interests quite broad. Virtually anything goes when it comes to sports, but there is more to me than that. Currently I'm recreationally active only in cycling, hiking, photography and snowshoeing, but that hardly reflects my recreational list. Sports have always been a major part of my life. Not only do I enjoy competition, but the physical demands that go along with it. I also suffer from wanting to be better than the average person and am said to be very intense in my approach to training. Fortunately, most things come very easy for me. My physical energy may seem endless, so exercise needs to be part of my life to balance my aggressiveness. It leaves me with more energy and helps me think more clearly. Through the years some of my recreational interests have waxed and waned or been abandoned for one reason or another. Below are a few my favorite sports activities from the past. The drop down menu takes you to broader coverage on others.

I did consider going professional before the draft and Vietnam.
