Who knows perfection better than Ashleigh Gnat?
Nine times in her decorated career as an LSU gymnast, Gnat scored a perfect 10, tied for the most in school history. That's not to mention her 17 All-American honors, her 2017 national championship in the floor exercise, and the multitude of honors, awards, and trophies to her name.
But Gnat's perspective on perfection is unexpectedly refreshing: "Perfect isn't even perfect." As in, perfection is subjective, a moving target, a line in the sand that keeps getting washed over by the waves.
I wanted to talk to Gnat about perfection, but the conversation ended up in a bigger and better place.
