As most people know, it's a very stereotypical halmark of Asperger's to have exactly zero athletic talent and to hate team sports.
I relate to the latter wholeheartedly. I hate team sports. Hate, hate, HATE team sports. Basketball, soccer, you name it, I can't do it.
But I've found that running is a very calming part of my life. I'm on a cross country team and I've had reasonable success competing scholastically over the last year. So I'm wondering, is the reason I'm good at it the fact that neither track nor cross country are team sports, or do I just not display this specific halmark of the syndrome?
Are there any other athletes here, and if so, what sport(s) do you do?
