Looking back at my 10 year old self makes me think about much I was into sports and wondering if that had changed after 4 years…….It hasn't.
When I was 10 I started playing football. After a few years of watching my brothers play I decided to play, and it would have to be one of the best decisions I made at the age of 10. I still play and enjoy it heaps and have made tonnes of great memories and friends through football. It wasnt the Only sport I had played that year though, I played softball, netball and joined an athletics club and at the end of the school year I won the sportiest girl in my school. (nailed it)
Most of my summer holiday that year consisted in surfing with my dad and brothers or swimming/biking, I have been doing that every year but not as much because my brothers are “too cool” to do stuff with me in public.
Little Maree was ball of energy, older Maree, not so much. I would be running day and end up running all night, If I did that now I wouldnt go to school just so I could sleep all day.
Sports is one Of my passions. Without sport I have no clue what I would be doing right now.
