As for me, I like sports, too, though in theory at present. When I was a junior pupil I went in for sports. I liked swimming, so I went to the swimming pool every day. You know how it always happens when you grow up. The habits gradually change and at present I hardly do sports seriously. Though from time to time I do my morning exercises.
But I am sure if you want to keep fit you must go in for sports because sport makes people strong, healthy and optimistic.
