2 Gymnasts compete on balance beams, rings, and a vaulting horse to show their strength and balance. Rhythmic Gymnastics is more like dancing. The competitors balance balls, throw and catch them and twirl ribbons while performing feats such as handstands and somersaults. They are judged on their performance.

3 Runners run around a track to see who is the fastest. The first one over the line is the winner. There are difference distance events. They also have team relays where the runners pass a baton to each other. They wear special shoes with spikes on the bottom so they don’t trip over.
