I think it's fair to say that Winter Olympics are also fine for a theme, in case anyone's wondering!

A feature of world competitions is their mascot, this is "Someity" para Olympic games mascot. Not much pink in my hoard, the blue might have been easier!

Equestrian with a throwback to what lego people were before minifigs ruled, obviously the mare isn't a purebred but clears fences sponsored by cargo world, clear brick gives a clear round over this one

110 hurdles -any species, rare appearance and an unfair height advantage, but lolly for Yeti , bronze medal is being disputed so we'll see how that pans out although if you're not first you're last! rickybobbys words not mine
