I did know that the first Olympics was hosted by Greece. I think I would be good at the foot race because I am good at running. I bet that Baron Pierre de Coubertin's ideas made him famous. I think I wouldn't be good at javelin and wrestling because I can't throw that long of a stick and I am not good at wrestling people. What things in the Olympics would you be good at.
