    You get to obtain the skills/attributes of a gold medal Olympian. Which sport are you choosing?

      Disappointed to see no parkour.

      Fine, weightlifting or running

        I can accept this. It is not the optimal choice but it has artistic merit

      3 day eventing. Nearly got there in my youf so what I really want is to be young again. Will accept showjumping as a mediocre substitute. Bugger anything that requires sore feet. The sweat, blood and tears go with the territory.

          I dunno; I think running and swimming fast, combined with shooting and sword fighting and a horse riding obby would make me quite dashing and gallant, eh what? Twirls ends of moustache and smiles in a suavely confident manner

          Edit: ok I’d also like the winter Olympic biathlon, where I get to excel at cross country skiing and shooting stuff with deadly accuracy

      Pole vaulting or high jump.

      But gymnastics or weight lifting would be cool too.
