I once read that 20 years after graduation, nearly every guy remembered that he played high school football, ran the 100 (yards) in 10 seconds and could bench press 250 lbs.

And dated a cheerleader.
Hmmm. Been 45 yrs since I graduated. Never played Fooball in H.S. Benched about 185, and hated running. 100 yd dash. 18 seconds on a good day. Did however wrestle varsity at 95lbs.
Well, I could do more than the last one, but that’s it!
(Wouldn’t try it today...)
I was a starter my Senior year. After half the team and Head Coach was canned for a drinking at a party after one game :O

Didn’t play ANY team sports, couldn’t run to save my soul, but could bench 185. I pity high school *star* athletes, as that’s as far as most of their careers went. They’re the ones training the “would you like fries with that” gang.
