I think it's all relative. When I describe someone as athletic, they normally possess good hand-eye coordination and some combination of speed and quickness. But it can depend upon what and whom they are compared to. I coach some pretty athletic high school basketball players. Now if they decide to go to compete at the college level, some may not look so athletic. And age has a way of moving the target. I once considered myself at least slightly athletic, but father time has humbled me as of late. As long as I can move, cycle the next mile and be in decent health, I don't worry about being athletic.
