*What previously underrecognized sport or pastime should be included in the
Olympic Games?*
The contestants are given a bag of spinach and asked to isolate the DNA,
purify the ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase, and separate the rRNA from
the mRNA. This would be a timed trial with certain as-yet-undetermined
constraints, but leaning towards the low-tech.
