Gymnastics
My mom put me in a gymnastics class in kindergarten after another mom saw me climbing the jungle gym on the playground and said, "Wow, your daughter must be taking gymnastics!" (I wasn't, but that gave my mom the idea that I should be.)
I joined a gymnastics pre-team two years later, and a USAIGC team a year after that. I continued competing in gymnastics until 7th grade, when I took a break for two years.
In tenth grade, after the pandemic happened, I started really missing gymnastics and pushing myself to my physical limits in that way. I rejoined my old team and started practicing again. It was hard to go back because I was worried that I would have lost too many of my skills, but I'm so glad I did it.
