Skiing of all kinds--Alpine, Nordic (wait, is this the Anthropology section? ), Telemark, Backcountry Touring, etc.).

A close runner up and my summer outlet to boot, would be sailing.

Oi, just found out three new pleasures connected to sports:

- Running. (jogging or sprinting)
- Fencing. I joined a local fencing club and it's great specially the free-form fencing.
- Watching women's volleyball...live. Great for your hormones.

Poll modified on request for the nth time.

I suggest to post this poll again from scratch, making it multi-option.

I love boxing. I'm a boxer. My upper body is incredibly strong for a girl. I didn't see boxing on the list as a choice until after I made my choice as "other" so please bear with me.

Also, I must say I like swimming just as much. I'm a big fan of swimming and I'm quite the swimmer.

I just love all sports. I work out quite a lot. I believe our bodies are our instruments and I believe in keeping mine finely tuned.

Anyway, my favorite physical activity is hiting the remote with my finger and falling asleep in my textbooks. Just kidding. I enjoy working out, running, swimming, football (european) and other activities.
