Allyson Felix came out of retirement to help United States women sail into the final round of 4x400m relay at the ongoing World Athletics Championships 2022.
Enjoying retired life, Allyson Felix was eating hot wings and sipping on a root beer float in Los Angeles when the phone rang. She was needed back in Oregon for the prelims of the 4x400 women's relay. Could she return to World Athletics Championships 2022? She was on her way. (More Sports News)
The most decorated sprinter in U.S. history jumped on a plane and was on the track Saturday night for the "last" time to help the Americans advance to the final. Back into retirement she goes. She said she will watch the final of the women's 4x400 on Sunday from the seats.
That's the plan 바카라 for now. She did have the fastest one-lap split of her teammates as the U.S. posted the fastest qualifying time of 3 minutes, 23.38 seconds. 바카라From what I know,바카라 the 36-year-old Felix said of whether this is really the end. 바카라But you know, what do I know?바카라
Last Friday, she went through an emotional send-off after helping the 4x400 mixed relay team to a bronze medal. That was supposed to be it. She went back to Los Angeles for the ESPY Awards and was a few hot wings in when she was summoned to the track for an encore performance.
Talitha Diggs ran the opening leg for the U.S. before handing off to Felix. She powered around the track and gave the baton to Kaylin Whitney, the sprinter who grew up idolizing Felix. Jaide Stepter Baynes brought it home.
바카라It's kind of coming full circle, literally,바카라 Whitney said of passing the baton to Felix. 바카라To be able to run alongside her, as well as these other great ladies, is always a privilege. I can't be happier.바카라 Soon after her run, Felix crouched down by the scoreboard and then sat on the grass to watch.
When it was over, she hugged her teammates. 바카라I was well on my way (to retirement),바카라 said Felix, who had her Saysh spikes 바카라 a footwear company she launched 바카라 dangling from her shoulder.
바카라I had no plans to be back here for the rest of the meet. But things happen. I felt good. It was really cool to run when the stadium was full and just get all the love, and run with this amazing group of women. It's really set the team up to go after the title.바카라
The American contingent in the final figures to be 400-meter hurdle world champion Sydney McLaughlin, fresh off her world-record performance Friday, and Dalilah Muhammad, who won bronze in the race.
They were on the winning 4x400 team at the Tokyo Games. So were Felix and Athing Mu. But Mu has the final of the 800 on the same day. Any chance Felix may leave the seats to run again? 바카라I was asked to run in the prelim,바카라 Felix said.
Should the group bring home a medal 바카라 the team is a big favourite 바카라 it would be Felix's 20th medal at World Championships, extending a record she already held. She also has 11 Olympic medals. 바카라It was just about being a team player and putting them in position to run their best (Sunday),바카라 Felix said.
Her immediate plans revolve around one thing 바카라 more hot wings. 바카라I only got a few of them,바카라 Felix said. 바카라I'll finish them now.바카라
