Your question was whether there are any physical activities where women can compete with men. You were given one example where women outperform men in a physical activity.

Here are more details of women who had less training than men managed to outperform those men in physical activity.

1. I fail to see women outperforming men on this test. I see them passing the tests - same as men

2. Even if we assume that they outperformed men on the tests, it does not qualify as 'outperforming men in a physical activity'.
