Now it was a couple of weeks ago that Biles rejected Nike’s contract and joined Athleta. Athleta is not very old and is a women-centric sports brand. Its first partnership was Allyson Felix and hence the star sprinter welcomed the greatest gymnast of all time into the team.

Felix had rejected Nike back in 2019 as they introduced a pay cut in her contract and provided no post-pregnancy benefits. As Felix had given birth to her daughter, Camryn in late 2018 she wanted a partner to support her during the time when there were no guarantees over her return on track. There came Athleta and Felix sided with them. Now Felix’s daughter is two years old and caught the attention of everybody including Biles when she came on track during the Olympic trials.

“That is so special to me and I cannot wait to cheer you on,” Felix said.
“Thank you and Cammy is so precious. It was so exciting watching you guys and her coming onto the track, it was so cute,” Biles said.

Now Biles and Felix both are going to compete in what likely could be their last Olympics. While Felix is 35, she will be nearing her 40s when the next Olympics happens. And careers in gymnastics start very young and end quickly before the athlete turning 30. But both have been great ambassadors of their respective sports.
