Context: And then we went to gymnastics . They had Olympic week and all the kids did some sort of tribute to it . In Cameron 's class they had a mini - Olympics of their own and the kids got to run a marathon around the gym , perform on the balance beams ( earning a 10 if they did n't fall off and a 9 if they did , lol ) , and long jump into the foam pit .
