Celebrate these gymnasts for different reasons!

I want to congratulate Simone Biles on taking care of her health & wellbeing. She is a great role model demonstrating what should be everyone’s #1 priority , our health and well-being . I can’t imagine the pressure she was under but I respect that she decided her health and well-being was more important than competing Thank you for being an amazing woman!

I was a gymnast many years ago so many people have asked me why she didn't try and compete. Once, I lost where I was in space and didn't know where the floor or ceiling was and I came crashing down. The tricks gymnasts do now are so difficult and dangerous. if you lose your orientation or are off you could literally land on your neck and break it.

No competition is worth that!

She did what was best for her and the team. By her stepping aside, it allowed Suni Lee to shine. Suni stepped up with determination and focus. Congratulations on the gold!!! You so deserve it.

These two women are incredibly impressive. Way to go to you both.
