[quote=Anonymous]I think there's a certain amount of self-selection that goes on too. I'm 5'8" and my daughter is a fairly big kid for her age. We figured out pretty quickly that gymnastics was not going to be her sport, and ballet wasn't either. There's a reason gymnasts aren't 5'8" and ballerinas aren't at 95% of the curve for weight. I think most of these athletes have amazing bodies. My friends and I were watching the sprinters the other night, and as a runner, I was pretty excited and inspired to see these strong, amazing women who are not twigs kicking ass and taking names.[/quote]
