About this Quote

In this quote, Shannon Miller, an American Olympic gymnast, is describing the difference in between 2 occasions in gymnastics: the flooring workout and the vault. She explains that in the flooring workout, the longest range you run is just 2 or 3 steps. This is because the floor exercise is performed on a mat that is just a couple of feet broad. Nevertheless, in the vault, the range you run is slightly longer, but still not a substantial amount. This is since the vault is a brief and explosive event, where the gymnast sprints towards a springboard and then launches themselves onto a vaulting table. Miller's words highlight the accuracy and control needed in both occasions, in spite of the short distances involved.
