The wrong ones apparently.................
Hockey
Squash
Cycling (long distance)
hmmmmm. 😀
Wrestling. I can't imagine a sport less appealing but who am I to argue? so I've just been practicing my microphone technique " if ya smeeeeeeeeeeeell what the Rock is cookin'!!"
Wrong wrestling?
@mary hinge. Pinched peroneal nearve for several weeks. Fancy doing the run as a 3-legged race?
wrestling, judo, squash
hmmm... no - I think the 'how agressive are you' question is skewing the results because the idea that a 71 bloke would want to wrestle is a bit odd frankly
Middle distance cycling
Middle distance swimming
Long distance swimming
Spot on for the first one, totally wrong for the second two. I loathe swimming and was hopeless at it when I tried triathlons.
Squash
Badminton
Table Tennis
Which sounds about right to be honest.
You may be less suited to:
1. Shooting (used to do a fair bit of this)
2. Weightlifting (really, I'm so disappointed)
3. Athletics (long-distance) (phew)
Well despite their best advice I did a fell race last night and didn't disgrace myself - stitch that BBC! 😉
Lawn bowls, shooting and netball - cos I'm old and fat!! 🙁
I got wrestling. Then Squash. Both of which I hate with a passion. I do hope no-one in the wider world is taking it at all seriously.
1) Triathlete - Goes against two of my principals. Don't run unless you are being chased. And don't swim, your not very good at it.
2) Middle distance cycling
3) Long distance cycling
Not a bad 2 and 3 though
Has anybody had Kabaddi suggested yet?
Athletics throwing events (I used to play a decent standard of cricket and had a bit of a missile arm on me, so that makes sense). Netball (wtf). And wrestling(?)
Table Tennis? Wrong. My septagenarian father destroys me at table tennis. Judo? Only if can do it with crocs ziptied to feet. Am sticking to swimming, they missed that one. Lawn bowls on the horizon tho, have had my eye on it for decades....just that the people who play it so often look somewhat uptight, yet in a relaxed fashion. Unnerving.
Judo (maybe)
Wrestling (maybe)
Table Tennis (used to at school)
So not that far out really.
Trowing things, netball???????? & wrestling.
I played rugby to a reasonable standard, I'm a sprinter not any kind of long distance athlete, which is why I struggle running or riding any great distance. They missed swimming, but I do fancy judo or Brazilian Ju-Jitsu, but not sure if my back is capable TBH.
