Women’s Soccer.

Or the marathon.  I’ve always thought it would be cool to say I could run that much.

I can’t.

It’s a tie between Judo and Equestrian Show Jumping. 

And I’m truly 100% serious.

You all are f-u-n-n-y. If there was a gold medal for blog commenters, you all would get it.

Me? I played tennis, so I’d love to be an Olympic tennis player…but…I also think it would be cool to be a part of a team sport so I think Annie and I would be teammates on the soccer team.

I always loved the figure skating, and the ski jump, or now the snow boarding. 

(I can’t do any of those things, that is factoring in that I’d spent my life developing those skills and would be capable of competing…)

Summer: Marathon

The 100m is the ultimate race, but I’m not a sprinter. The marathon was not an ancient race, but added in 1896 in honor of the Greeks.

Winter: Biathalon

The challenge of cross-country skiing and rifle intrigues me.

It would be nice to be on the USA basketball team.  I could even be on the floor and they would still win!

Javelin.  I want to do an event that inspires terror in a Greco-Roman kind of way.  Quake in fear mortals, or I shall javelin your butts.

Pistol dueling. Although I’d probably only make it to round one.

Haha, Travis. That’s funny.

Summer:

Gymnastics (floor routine)

Winter:

Snowboarding

(I love watching extreme sports and wish I was fearless enough to do them)
