TOP 10 - HARD SPORT TASKS

I’ve tried a lot of different sporting type things. I have failed so many more times than I have succeeded. The other day I was prompted to a conversation about the hardest tasks in sports. Interesting topic since there are a lot of thing that has physically hard to do. There are some that are just physically harder than others. The professional athletes make many things look a lot easier than they really are.

So, with that being said, here are the top 10 things I have tried in athletics that are the hardest:

1) Complete a Marathon
2) Consistently Hit a Golf Ball Successfully
3) Hit a baseball
4) Play Tennis Competitively
5) Sink a Three-Pointer from the NBA Line
6) Ice Skate
7) Pass a volleyball off the serve
8) Place Kick Field Goals (laces out, please)
9) Hurdle (gym class experiment)
10) Play Lacrosse (backyard experiment)
