Gabby Thomas is undoubtedly one of the biggest track and field stars the USA has seen in the past few years. Recently, in an appeal on The Squeeze podcast, Thomas reflected on her career and her most important achievement off the track, saying,

“I think being a positive role model for the younger generation and for people who do look at what I'm doing. Yeah, I'm really proud of that because I, as I say that, I'm reminded of like people like Allison Felix and Sonia Richards Ross who I looked at when I was younger and I didn't follow the sport very closely, but I did see how they held themselves and how they competed.”

“And inevitably I do feel like I modeled myself off of that. And I felt so inspired and if I can even be like that even a little bit for someone else, I mean that is something really to be proud of,” she went on to add.

On the track, Gabby Thomas’ career has seen her win five Olympic gold medals, three of which are gold. She is also a two-time World Championships medalist.
