Answer 26

Gymnastics

Track

Swimming

(Beach)Volleyball

Answer 27

Track.

I ran the 1500m and 3000m in high school and up until this March ran marathons for fun.  I really, REALLY enjoyed watching highlights of today's women's marathon and seeing Constantina Tomescu Dita of Roumania win it.  I could feel her pain.

But to be honest, I enjoyed watching the gymnastics and swimming events as well.  Nastia Luikin really impressed me, and so did Dara Torres in swimming.  Other events like kayaking and beach volleyball were also impressive.  It didn't matter if an American won, I was more interested in WHO won because you know to make it to the Olympics you have to be good.

track, basketball

swimming, gymnastics,
