“It’s bigger than me. It’s about my purpose and what I want to show in track and field, what I want to show people who are watching, and the younger generation. It’s about that. If you get caught up in, ‘I need to prove to everyone that I belong here and deserve this,’ it’s not really about that.”
2x Olympic medalist and 2x world medalist Gabby Thomas joins us live in Eugene after defending her Olympics Trials 200m title to secure her spot on another Olympic team. Gabby walks us through the sequence of her 200m rounds, why she decided to go all-in on the 200m for the Olympic Trials, how she handles the pressures of racing, her purpose for competing, her goals for Paris, and how she hopes to inspire the next generation. Hear more from Gabby and her incredible journey in this episode of the CITIUS MAG Podcast.
