Superhero Sports Day

Everyone's a winner

Superhero Sports Day

For anyone who's ever seen a superhero film, it's pretty clear that it isn't a profession which allows for much down-time. Their daily lifestyle of saving lives and enforcing justice doesn't seem to allow for much exercise.

This is something that proves especially infuriating for us normals as they all appear to be blessed with infinite athleticism.

Thankfully, Maris Wicks has lifted the curtain on their true fitness regimes and, to be honest, it's a tad surprising. Would anyone have pegged Captain America as a Frisbee fan?

Marc Chacksfield
Content Director

As Content Director of Shortlist, Marc likes nothing more than to compile endless lists of an evening by candlelight. He started out life as a movie writer for numerous (now defunct) magazines and soon found himself online - editing a gaggle of gadget sites, including TechRadar, Digital Camera World and Tom's Guide UK. At Shortlist you'll find him mostly writing about movies and tech, so no change there then.
