Being short is actually an advantage is some sports... try something else.

And, I'll say again. Don't approach this as having an "adversity/challenge" essay that you use for every prompt of that type. Tailor your response to each prompt as each school is looking for something a bit differnt whether it is coping skills, problem solving skills, what you learned and how you changed based on a specific experience, etc.
 
how short is short, and what sport? Also, at what level did you compete? I think this essay works best if you were competing at a high level of athletics - it depends on other circumstances, and your personal story, but I'm not sure that being a short person who plays IM sports is particularly novel.
