In viewing the ladies' competition in Sochi, let's not forget that teenage bodies are
growing bodies. And that sometimes teenage athletes' bodies outgrow their skills.

In these teenage bodies live strong souls.

Of course all girls have puberty problems. Asada, Kostner, Kim, Ando also had these problems. And became excellent Seniors.

Russian teenage girls at this Nationals all had excellent results for their age enen being not -teen (10 years old or even 9).
Radionova was at 10 National Champion in her age group (10 and younger). At 11 and 12 she was (twice!) National Champion in age group of 11-12 years old.
Sakhanovich was at 10 3rd at Nationals in her age group, after that she was 1st at age group 11-12, JrNats Champion, has medals of JGP Final and JrWorlds.
About the same results in past - Medvedeva, Sotskova, Proklova, Ogoreltseva.
Sotnikova, Tuktamysheva, Lipnitskaia, Pogorilaya also were among the best novices.

Yes, they are teenagers, but best teenagers of Russia, and were the best in their age groups before.

Well, middle-aged bodies grow and change too. At least that's what my mirror tells me. Is there a thread for that?
