Since she started her sporting career, she has been awarded many recognitions, apart from the ones obtained at the Olympic Games.
In 1996, she went to her first Olympic Games in Atlanta, where she participated for the individual team, along with her colleague Alba Caride. She achieved the fifth position in the preliminary round and the ninth position in the semi-final. Finally, she got the ninth position in the Olympics final, being the youngest participant in the competition.
Due to her good marks at the European Championship in Zaragoza, she was selected in order to represent Spain at the 2000 Sydney Olympics. Again she got the ninth position.
In her home town, Vitoria, she met her former trainer Iratxe, who motivated Almudena's sporting life. They both moved to Barcelona and started working again together.
In 2004, the Spanish Gymnastics Federation decided that Almudena Cid and Jennifer Colino had to compete against each other in order to choose who would represent Spain at the 2004 Athens Olympics. The competition was at a very high level - nearly at Olympic level - causing mental and physical weariness and increasing the risk of injury before the Olympic Games. After obtaining the best marks, Almudena went to the 2004 Athens Olympics.
In these Games she reached her third olympic final, something that no other rhythmic gymnastic had gotten until then. In the final, that took place on 29 August, she got the eighth position, along with the Olympic diploma. And she earned a trophy of Rio of Janeiro
Once again, Almudena was selected to represent Spain at 2008 Beijing Olympics, her fourth and last Olympic Games.
