Olympic champion Gabby Thomas is sitting out this month’s track world championships due to an Achilles tendon injury that’s been bothering her since May. 🤕⁣ ⁣ The 28-year-old, who clinched gold in the 200-meter sprint in Paris and was part of the championship-winning 4x100m and 4x400m relay teams, shared that the injury worsened in July. 💔⁣ ⁣ Despite the disappointment, Thomas knows that prioritizing her health is crucial. “It’s OK to be human and take care of myself,” she said. 👏⁣ ⁣ We can’t wait to see her back in action in 2026. ✨ #thegist⁣ ⁣ #trackandfield #gabbythomas #track #womenssports
