        That is just how the olympics and pro sports works.

        95% training 5% finding the mutants. The 5% is basically the only way to break records these days when people aren’t trying to engineer victory.

        This is why we should have events targetted at everyday tasks: “endurance sitting” “quickest 1000 stair steps carrying a heavy box” etc

        No one said the olympics is easy. Is it 3 weeks no food, 3 days no water, 3 hours no shelter (from the elements)?

        So make sure every game is less than 1hr30min at the high end.
