What would it be?
Winter- Snowboard half pipe
Summer- 100 meter dash. It would be awesome to be the fastest man alive

Winter - Biathlon. Such a badass event.
Summer - 800m. My favorite event from HS T&F, and IMO the most difficult.

Winter – 30 km Nordic (Cross Country) skiing.
Summer – 100 m freestyle (swimming).

I was never capable of winning either, but my "shot" is long, LONG (decades long) gone.

Summer: The decathlon; it pretty much means you are the best overall athlete alive.
Or the triathlon; it means you have the best endurance and are the most conditioned athlete.

Winter: Figure skating. A friend of mine is a figure skater (not Olympic great but very high level has won big time competitions) and I was amazed at how much went into it. Those people are very talented and you could practice for years only have one little slip up and end your dreams.

Sorry Bob Misty May got hitched prior to the 2012 Olympics. You'll have to settle for your imaginary wife.

Just kidding on the last part you have made it clear on this website on at least one occassion that I know of that your wife is real and you have seen her with your own 2 eyes.

Winter: Men's downhill. A badass, ballsy event.

Summer: Boxing. I boxed as a teenager. My last fight was against a guy who would go on to be the US Army middleweight champ, get invited to the Olympic trials, and have a 35-2 record as a pro. I came to the realization that night that I should probably consider other career options. :)

Winter: Ski Jumping - just seems badass.

Summer: Basketball - if you're good enough to crack the US delegation, you're good enough to play pro ball...

Winter - Figure Skating (Doubles Free Dance)
Summer - Rhythmic Gymnastic (ribbons and balls specialist)

Hahahaha... balls.

Just kidding...

Winter - Hockey (Canada beating the U.S. in OT... I score the winner in place of Crosby)

Summer - Basketball (Canada over the U.S. in OT... I dunk over Lebron... he typically takes a dive even though I don't touch him... no call)

GO CANADA GO!

Sorry my U.S. Irish Brothers.
