Just got back a little while ago from a game of tennis. That's a fun sport! Now, time for a shower, and to catch up on GoT, which I haven't watched past episode 2. Have heard a few story lines and spoilers don't bother me, though. lol

Have not played tennis in years. Play squash occasionally.
Good exercise.

You're not kidding!
I used to play squash, back when I could do stuff. It was the most exhausting sport I've ever played. I loved it though! I could never pull off that shot where you hit it against the back wall hard enough for it to bounce right back to the front wall.

There's something kind of classy about squash. I think the Ivy League, and only the Ivy League (as far as conferences of the National Collegiate Athletic Assoc.) sponsors it.

I'm not particularly good at it, but I just enjoy the exercise.
Yoga is also good.

I wasn't great either, certainly not as good as my best friend at the time who dominated the hell out of me at every sport.

Only sport I was semi-decent at was Rugby during school. Never was particularly that strong but pretty good at running. My best friend is pretty built though.
