#competed

I think the sport of wrestling, which I became involved with at the age of 14... I competed until I was 34, kind of old for a contact sport. I coached the sport until I was 47. I think the discipline of wrestling has given me the discipline I have to write. ↗

I am thinking about chess in schools in particular. In the USA more than 3200 children competed in an event. ↗

I love cycling, running and swimming. In recent years I've competed regularly in triathlons, which means I don't find the physical side of driving a struggle any more. ↗

When I competed, it was for honor and country. It was a privilege to be a part of the U.S. team. ↗

The Athletic Association competed against the University. So there was an event. You cannot break world records unless it is an established event, and you have three timekeepers, and the whole thing is organized. ↗
