Re: The Gymnastike Acct

I am going to message everyone who expressed interest in a shared account sometime tonight or tomorrow with the amount I’d want from you and other details.

I’m not super interested in an open-ended monthly charge on my credit card, so I think I am going to purchase the $147 annual subscription and just have whoever is interested send me a few dollars via paypal as a one time deal. 

Sound good?

WOOHOO! New episode is up! We catch up on the news, discuss the state of Georgia gymnastics, and chat with U.S. trampoline superstar Charlotte Drury. Not only is she BFFs with McKayla Maroney and Kyla Ross; she is wise beyond her years: “There’s life after [artistic] gymnastics. There is always going to be something for you even if it doesn’t seem like it.”

These pics are adorable! I love their friendship. And what an amazingly talented trio!

On bars, I’m working to connect my Pak-Salto to Shaposh-Half. On beam, I’ve been working Split-Ring and also Back-Handspring-Arabian. My next goal is to have a good competition at American Cup and to hopefully have added some of my upgrades that I have been working into my routines.

Imagine if these two somehow defy all odds (again) and make the Rio 2016 team together. What an incredible story that would be...

If McKayla gets the TTY down and Kyla continues to upgrade her UB and BB routines, barring any significant injuries, they may actually have a shot at making it happen. 

Keep dreaming big, girls. Anything is possible!

***I take no credit for these gifs, all credit to the lovely gif makers out there.

Here's a shot (sorry it's blurry!) of Kyla and Mac sharing a hug right after they found out they made the US Olympic team together. They'd been dreaming of this moment since they were six years old. <3 

Can someone pleeeeeeeeaaaaaase help make a gif of this special moment? It's at the 1:27:18-1:27:20 mark of this vid. I'd be forever grateful!!
