    Rhythmic gymnastics. So graceful and effortless-looking. Though I don't have even a fraction of the strength and flexibility required.
    Hey, stop the copycat-ing :rofl:

    Based on what I'd actually stand a chance in: shooting.
    Based on what I'd love to be a part of (athletics or cycling): Long jump or Team Pursuit.

    But Summer Olympics would be my second choice: I'm a skier first and foremost.

    Rowing, track cycling or artistic gymnastics. In that order.

    Thinking about it, probably track more than rowing. As much as I enjoyed rowing, imagining spending upwards of 3 hours a day on an ergo makes me want to vomit.

    Swimming.

    100m freestyle, 200m freestyle and 200m breaststroke.

    I really wish I didn't give up swimming when I was 14 now

    I was going to say this, you got there first.

    Gymnastics. If I had such body control to do the things they do I'd be real proud.
