    194 Words  | 1 Pages

    During my final year of Cross Country around Regionals at Oglethorpe, I ran my final race for my high school career. Banks County was nearly number one in the State, the furthest we had ever ranked in history, and spirit and hopes for State Championship were high. I was nervous, like nobody’s business, I had messed up during my senior night because I was upset for my parents for not showing up and escorting me. And I was scared that I was going to do horribly.

Being able to perform gravity-defying jumps and spins on a thin blade requires more than just talent—it involves dedication and perseverance when in the face of adversity.

    The success of her landing deals with the components of maintaining stability. To maintain stability, one must keep the center of gravity directly above and within the base of support (the feet), have a larger base (spread feet further apart), move the center of gravity closer to the base, and extend the base in the direction of the outgoing force (3). As the gymnast lands, her feet are slightly angled in front of her meaning her base is in the direction of the outgoing force.

Doing this causes her center of gravity to remain neutral while moving close to the base of support.
