Ive played hockey for some time. Captained it this year and seen a different side to it. I also played very informal netball league but somehow that's become very serious. In both we've been winning and its turned quite seriouss and all about the winning.

I want to do an out of the house sport/ exercise thing which is social a couple of times a week. Im thinking run club or some sort of (fitness type) martial arts, or genuinely relaxed team sport. I also love the thought of outdoor pursuits type thing but not sure if that exists.

Im mid 40s and I am a bit competitive but also want the enjoyment of whatever im doing not just the winning!

Or even maybe a hobby that isn't sport at all to tick the social side of things and I could do my own running/workouts another time.

Does anyone do something that may fit the bill? Thank you!

I started CrossFit 18 months ago and it's the best thing I ever did. It's completely addictive, it's built around community, and if your competitive (I'm not, at all!) you can compete too, or at least compete against yourself and your class. You don't have to be super fit, everything is scalable. I've loved developing my fitness and challenging myself. I was 45 when I started btw
