You can fly at a height of up to 6ft/2m above the ground. You can propel yourself in any direction midair, expending energy at the same rate as the corresponding running speed, but without straining any muscles (so you will be tired but not sore). You will be fully subjected to drag and will be based on air speed, not ground speed. That means you could coast along all day at 20mph/30kmh in a strong tailwind, or get thrown backwards by a strong headwind.

OR

You can jump up to 30ft/9m high. You will also be able to comfortably land from that height. Jumping higher will require more work from your legs, and the highest jumps will leave your legs immediately quite sore. You will have control over how high you jump. You're not gonna be immobilized, but you are gonna feel it for the rest of the day. This only benefits your vertical, your horizontal will only be affected by increased air time to travel forward at the same speed as before (you'll be moving longer, not faster).

The trick is just barely beating everybody, so as to not be disqualified.

Some athletes who break world records again and again and not set one peak performance bc they get paid more that way.

Welcome to c/WouldYouRather, where we present you with the toughest, most ridiculous choices you never knew you had to make!

Come for the absurdity, stay because you've clearly got nothing better to do with your life.
