It's Not A Sport

It's a frequent discussion among my friends, Is something a sport or not. I would like to share with you my thoughts on the issue.

Rock Climbing

For quite some time I was unsure about this one.

It takes physical effort, it has a serious risk of injury and it's not judged.

It sounds like a sport. But it isn't

Rock climbing is NOT a sport. There is no winner, it's just you verses the mountain, so it just isn't a sport.

Then you have the variation of "rock wall climbing" that isn't even all that hard, I mean, the bolted handholds and footholds right on there for you. where is the sport in that ?? I'll tell you where :

Nowhere, cause it's just not a sport.
