Gold Medalist Gabby Thomas on Achilles Injury Status, Mental Health, ‘Grand Slam Track’ Downfall

As she works back from her achilles injury in preparation for LA 28, three-time Olympic gold medalist Gabby Thomas opens up about the mental health challenges elite athletes face and how she is creating a blueprint for others to find their peace in her new role as an ambassador for Athletes for Hope’s Athlete Leadership council, alongside Katie Ledecky and Steph Curry.

Thomas also discusses her recovery from her injury, her role in Alexis Ohanian’s Athlos track league, and why Michael Johnson’s Grand Slam Track failed just a few years after it was created.

Matt Iseman takes viewers beyond the scoreboard, inside the deals, and face-to-face with the personalities shaping sports.
