Alice Sontfélix Considers Olympic Return
A seven-time Olympic champion and 14-time world champion sprinter is considering a return to competition for the Los Angeles Olympics. The athlete, who retired in 2022 after a 20-year career in the 100m, 200m, and 400m events, plans to resume training in October. She last competed in the 2021 Tokyo Olympics and is now a mother of two. The athlete stated the motivation for a comeback is the opportunity to compete in her home country at age 42. She aims to resume training in October for a special program involving minimal racing before the U.S. Sontfélix previously won a silver medal in the 200 meters.
