Every adult in Britain has been entered into the Olympics lottery.

[LubaLuca]

Twelve months before the Olympics start you receive a letter to tell you which event you'll be taking part in. You are given paid leave and childcare, and all equipment is provided. Like jury service, this is not optional.

Which event would you most want to be picked for, and which would be your worst nightmare?

Shooting or archery.
My legs don’t work properly so running/athletics/gymnastics are out and I loathe swimming, so no diving, synchronised or racing swimming.

I guess one of the throwing events? Quick, I already know how to throw something... Assuming I don't actually have to be good at it!

I’ll take rifle shooting please.

Hard to rule down the rest to a single worst option.

Pick me for synchronized swimming

But I am not doing the wrestling

I don't mind as long as its sunny. Just don't make me do the Winter Olympics.

Athletics or cycling would be my pick

Swimming or gymnastics would be the worst nightmare

I'd love to do gymnastics (providing I was also awarded with the skill!!).

I would least like to do diving or swimming because I can't swim and I would drown .

Categorically not the canoeing.

Probably something like shot put for best category

Diving would be my worst nightmare

Everything else I’d probably injure myself or not qualify beyond the first heat

100m. I'd lose but at least it would be over fast.

Is sitting on your area scoffing biscuits a sport? I’d smash you all on that event.

Anything running and jumping would be a massive no.

Boxing or wrestling I could get on board with to release some anger.

Probably table tennis would be the most fun

The thing I'd dread most would be the triathlon.

I'd want shot put or javelin but with my ex as the throwee (he's not very big but I am!) I'd like to chuck him to the far side of fuck.

My worst nightmare would be swimming as I can't, I'd sink like a brick

Your see Romesh and Rob do this the other night?

I'd want to do equestrian, although I've only been on a horse maybe 3 times in my life. It looks fun and achievable.

My nightmare would be hurdles. The humiliation of being crap and falling over.

Yes, I'd need to be awarded with skill

I reckon I would least embarrass myself with tennis.

I'd love to be a gymnast. They're incredible.

That was supposed to be to @daisyjgrey

Is there a game of snap category? If yes, put me down for that!

@daisyjgrey that's ok - I've got the canoeing covered - or martial arts if someone else has taken canoeing.

I'd love to be good at gymnastics though, or figure skating

Table tennis please, or dressage.

I'd have to do a doubles event with DS2 - him being an annoying dumbass and me getting annoyed.
just give me our medals, we out tantrum anyone.

worst event: gardening. I once killed a cactus. there'd be no point

Can I do javelin please as I’m feeling particularly stabby right now.

Weight lifting would be my nightmare option, noodle arms you see.

I don't think gardening is an Olympic sport. Not this oily pics anyway 😊

Oily pics!! Olympics!!

Can I defer to the winter Olympics and do luge? At least it involves lying down.
Or curling is pretty much just sweeping. I could do that!
