Leyanet Gonzalez


Leyanet Gonzalez is a Cuban gymnast. An Olympian who finished 22nd in the 2004 Olympics allaround, she is exceptionally unusual in gymnastics. Not only has she enjoyed a long career, but she remained in high level competition after having given birth. Most female elite gymnasts are in their late teens and early 20s, and seldom in recent years have many been parents. In the 1950s and 1960s it was not unknown, the great Soviet Larisa Latynina having given birth during her competitive career, and won numerous Olympic and world titles.
