Colson Whitehead went on a London Olympics adventure, which you can read all about in his multi-part dispatch for Grantland.
“I started scoring events in terms of what they’d offer in a human-annihilation-type scenario. Offensewise, archery skills seemed like an obvious asset at first. But the archers’ high-tech bows wouldn’t survive a day of jumping off roofs, tromping through sewers, and escaping cannibal hordes.”
