Allyson Felix is an Olympic darling. The 35-year-old track and field sprinter first qualified for the 2008 Olympic Games and finished second in the women’s 200 meters in Beijing. But since then, Allyson has absolutely dominated her Olympic races. She currently has nine Olympic medals, six gold and three silver. These accomplishments led to Allyson tying Marelene Ottey as the most decorated female Olympian in track and field history.
Now, Allyson is preparing for the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo — which she has said will be her final Olympic appearance of her career. Allyson is going into the Tokyo Games with a goal of taking home another gold medal and adding to her impressive resume while representing Team USA.
