I don't sub-vocalize like at all. I believe that it's correlated with my pretty ridiculous reading speed and comprehension. My brain has always moved faster than my mouth/vocal equipment.

Regarding human experience, I'm not certain that it's universal, but I've never been a part of an athletic team of any variety. I was Quizbowl captain in middle and high school, but I imagine there is a pretty substantial qualitative difference between trouncing other nerds with my brain/reflexes and actually winning or losing an event where one exerts themselves physically.
