Modern Olympic sports flourish, include traditional outdoor pursuits

Jo saw some incendiary remarks name calling and threatening a young lady on the US Olympic shooting team. Instead of adding fuel to the flame, she wondered what Olympic sports would be considered as traditional outdoors sports by the average Midwesterner with an outdoors twist.

Here they are:

Diving
Swimming
Archery
Sprint canoeing
Slalom canoeing
4 kinds of cycling, incl. road and mountain biking
Modern pentathlon (includes shooting)
Triathlon
Shooting (15 kinds including trap, skeet, double trap, pistol and rifle)
and of course, beach volleyball.
