McKayla Maroney is embracing the warm weather in her latest photo.

On Wednesday, the gymnast added a new picture to Instagram as she wears a dark sweatshirt and shorts while walking down the steps to the beach. As she flaunts her long and slender legs, an epic view can be seen in front of her, something she finds to be "breathgiving."

It seems that Maroney has more time to be on her own these days ever since she opened up in a previous interview on whether she plans to continue her legacy in gymnastics or not. At this point, gymnastics was her main trademark until she realized that she doesn't need it to be who she is.

"The reason why I wanted to go to this next Olympics—I finally figured it out. I wanted to show people that when everyone else is up against them, they can get through the struggle and the pain and do it because they love something," she explained via uInterview. "One day I was sitting outside and I was like, 'Why am I doing this?' Yeah, it's cool that I want to do it and help inspire people, but I didn't know how to be okay with not being a gymnast."

Maroney currently has more than 800,000 followers on Instagram.
