I consider myself average as a runner but I couldn’t sprint 200m as fast as the walkers walk a full 20km. The speed of the athletes at the games is mind blowing.
I know athletics tend to depend on body capabilities and training but I perceived the question to be which competition would be the “easiest” and I suppose I perceived “easy” to mean “don’t need that many rules and steps”. I find athletics to be one of the more simpler games out there. I apologize if I may have misinterpreted the question.
Well if you’re like 15 years old and join an athletics club tomorrow and train like a psychopath, its not completely impossible that you could make the Olympics in 2028.
I’m 40 this year, I’m in good shape for a middle aged dad but olympically speaki g anything physical is pretty much out for me, Id have to look at shooting or archery because thats significantly more skills based than physical exertion.
I meant it as what do you think would take the least effort. So for example, shooting might be easier for some people since it’s not as physically demanding. Others may find that diving would come naturally to them since it’s about spatial awareness and precision of body movements. In contrast, all around-gymnast would be much more difficult because of not only the physical demands, but also training for several events.
Any sport in the Athletics category

Oh sure. It’s a 1 step process: 1) get good.
Then off to the Olympics for you.
