If you could participate in any event either summer or winter, which one would you take a shot at? I was having this discussion with my wife a little bit ago and figured I would ask you all...

I have always liked the ski jump, and speed skating. I would also like to try the downhill super g, bobsled and skeleton. There are a few others but those are my favorites. Summer, not so sure.

I feel the same for the winter as you do, but for the summer I like only two events, Gymnastics and Swimming.

The running reminds me too much of my time in service and I did enough running to make it from here and china and back :)

Iceskating. They've always reminded me of graceful fairies. I would love to feel like a fairy.

Good question. Honestly, I'm not too fond of the Olympics themselves any more but some of the activities are great to do. My personal favorites are archery, biathlon, shooting and triathlon.

The Biathlon, as a Marine trained for the Arctic I would've loved to try that!
