    Swimming - something long, like a 500m or 1500m freestyle. Except I'd have to do it in my pool 'cuz I'm not used to flip turns.
    Or biking - the 27-mile time trials looked really interesting and similar to the 30-mile trail I like to ride.
    Of course, they'd have to lower their standards considerably since it would take me three times as long as everyone else to finish either event!!

    Basketball but I would want it with amateurs not professional players like it was now. Although it would be interesting to win the gold from a sport like badminton and see what that does for you.


    Proud dad: "We are so proud of our son, he won a gold medal at the 2012."
    Dad's friend: "Oh that's wonderful. I know you are so proud. What does he do? Track & Field, swimming, gymnastics???"
    Dad: "Badminton"
    Dad's friend: "Oh":huh:
