The Olympics is a time to celebrate athletes in sports we don’t follow every day.
I don’t watch baseball, soccer, basketball, etc at the Olympics because they all get plenty of air time.
In the last week I watched water polo, gymnastics, breakdancing, volleyball, skateboarding, and more.
There’s an event (modern pentathlon) that consists of pistol shooting, fencing, Horsemanship, running, and swimming. That’s a fascinating mix of disciplines and there are people who train for decades to be good at it, and I think it’s wonderful that they get their time in the spotlight every few years.
