5x Olympics medalist, the first black woman to carry the American flag at an Opening Ceremony, and one ✨amazing✨ mom, Evelyn Ashford started out on her high school boys team and ended up in the UCLA Athletics Hall of Fame. She took home her first 2 gold medals at LA84, had her daughter, and then went on to become the oldest woman to win 🏅 in track and field in ‘92. Even before she retired, her longevity stood out: “I am thrilled to be 31, still running and having my daughter watch me.” Happy Mother’s Day to all the mamas out there—we know how hard you work.
