    I was going to say "I started when they were just big rocks", but seeing as how you're twice my age it didn't seem appropriate lol

    Off and on for 14 years. I think in my case the worst (and best) part is realizing I have so much more potential. Need to stop drinking first though..

    Well after I poured the vodka out I had to drive to my house from my girlfriends to mine and I debated stopping by the liquor store thats on the way that I was going to pass by anyway to get more vodka so I know I have a serious problem. I think I can beat it with AA I have controlled it before appreciate your support.

    Well, I started seriously training when I was 15, so almost 18 years now. But, my dad used to drag me in with him as young as 12.
