? asked in SportsOther - Sports · 4 years ago

I'm 24 and didn't play any high school sports because I was scared to try. Any competitions or sports i can do at 24?

I am in very good shape and I have a strong core. I play basketball, and I'm not that good, but all I hear all the time is that i'm fast.

I am usually the fastest person on the floor when I play pick up ball and I love doing sprints, and heavy squats.

I say this not to boast but to give you an insight.

I really wish I had gotten involved in sports. I find myself sometimes training like an athlete, and I yearn to be part of a team or to work hard at something and then see it pay off when everyone's watching.

But I guess it's too late for that. Any competitions or anything I can still do?

Also, I do not like running marathons, 5ks and 10ks.
