This week on Deadline! Katie Daryl plays rough...

Wed, 10 Feb 2010 01:08:00 -0500

Katie Daryl shows off her physical agility on Deadline! often - but was she always such an athlete?

Q: Did you play on any sports teams growing up?

KD: I loved sports growing up, but sports didn’t seem to love me. I was on the basketball team in junior high…but I had more scratched knees and jammed fingers than points to brag about. I was also on the volleyball team when I was in the 8th grade. I think the coach was blind because why else would she expect a 5 foot kid weighing 80 pounds to win game point?

In high school I joined the golf team, luckily by that time I found my sense of humor so it was okay I couldn’t find the fairway. They let me play for 4 years and even made me team captain! I had nice hair and a good manicure so I helped our ALL girls Catholic team look less butch.

Q: What is your LEAST favorite exercise?

KD: I get a rash just looking at the stair climber machine. I get winded stepping up on a curb. Why in the world would I try to climb an imaginary never ending flight of stairs?!
