DOES CK PLAY ANY SPORTS?

 

Celestial Koan exercises to maintain the physical body at a healthy level. This includes jogging and gym work. He doesn’t enjoy any of it.

CK also practices Tai Chi and Qi Gong.

He’s played squash since his early twenties and still runs around a squash court. Unfortunately squash is not as popular as it used to be when CK was young, and he is having difficulty finding opponents and venues, particularly on his travels. In the U.S.A. racquet ball is popular and little squash is played. And in CK’s perception the diagonals of the court are definitely getting longer.

CK does give occasional thought to taking up golf or bowls instead, but is putting that off until he retires into his old age.

He is giving consideration to playing tennis again rather than squash. He played tennis as a teenager. It’s less demanding (at least doubles play is) than squash, and it’s proving easier to socialise and find venues.

I’ll keep you posted.

CK was captain of his school soccer team, and capped for cricket back in the far off days of his schooling, but hasn’t paid any team sports since - unless you count chess as a sport.

CK isn’t a geek, although some people have been known to gain the false impression upon first meeting that he’s some sort of geek, academic, intelectual, or genius. CK is none of these things. He’s just somewhat wise, and an individual who walks his own path.
