How many non athlete's readers here knew what they wanted to do the rest of their life as a pursuit by the age of 9?

for me I was trying to figure out how to get ready for school on time by the age of 9, never mind see a sport on television or elsewhere and want to do that the rest of my life, or be in the olympics.

anyone have this type of work/sports epiphany?
I am LOVING these stories - thanks for posting!
