I was reading a forum talking about it, and they have a point. It should be height to weight ratio as far as qualifying for competitions. I'm short, very short, so at 150 I would still be chubby and out of shape. (In fact, once upon a time I was 150 and out of shape. According to my BMI I'm supposed to be 123 or somewhere around there, making me eighty pounds overweight.) A friend of mine is super short and skinny, doesn't even break 100 lbs wet. If she was where I'm supposed to be, she would be overweight. So there are a lot of factors that define Clydes and Athenas. As for me, I hate running and can't swim competitively, so I'll decide how long I consider myself an athena.
