The news about the opening of the Myddleton Road Outdoor Gym and Table Tennis area genrated a bit of banter on Twitter (see below) about local sporting competitions...

It set me thinking,  after a "summer like no other" in London during 2012 we could all do with a return of the warm feelgood factor. So if we held our own neighbourhood Olympics what are the local sporting challenges we could attempt?

On Twitter The Step suggested a Triathlon: Run (jog) to Ally Pally & back, swim the New River & 5km on the new outdoor gym bike! 

How about about a modern pentathlon journey to work: getting to the station on time, buying a coffee, finding a newspaper, getting a seat on the rain, and no delays?

What about weightlifting - bringing home the shopping from Morrisons when there's not a 329 in sight? 

Any other neighbourhood versions of Olympic Sports? Add your ideas to the comments below.
