- Allyson Felix, the most decorated female track athlete in Olympic history with 11 medals, is contemplating a return to competition for the 2028 Los Angeles Games.
- Having last raced at the 2022 World Championships and after welcoming a second child in 2024, the 40-year-old did not participate in the Paris Olympics.
- Felix told Time magazine "once-in-a-lifetime homecoming" opportunity to compete on home soil is the primary motivation powerful enough to draw her back to the sport.
- She acknowledges that she will not be at her peak performance level at 42 but expressed a desire to "give it a try" and challenge conventional expectations for women her age.
- Her illustrious career includes a silver medal at Athens 2004, a 200m gold at London 2012, and a record 20 World Championship medals.
