In an exclusive interview with “Nas” weekly.The three-time Olympic gold medalist explained why sprinters are built in a different way.

“People are surprised that we run so little,” Thomas said through the thirty eighth edition Awards for achievements in the sector of footwear at Casa Cipriani in New York, Wednesday, December 4. “We don’t run more than a mile, and the fact that I’ve run a mile in my life is a lot for a sprinter. Most people didn’t even do that.”

Thomas added: “So when people ask us, ‘Do you need to go for a run?’ The answer is at all times, “No, we don’t.”

Thomas won gold medals in the ladies’s 200 m, 4×100 m and 4×400 m relay on the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris. Although her races are over within the blink of an eye fixed, Thomas has shown that preparing for them is an extended and arduous process.

“Getting into a competitive mindset takes years of mental training,” she said. “I won’t lie. It took me five years to mentally prepare for Paris, I trained physically and mentally.

She continued: “It was meditation, adequate sleep, discipline and consistency. It was all this stuff that I worked on day after day, but I did it and it is feasible, but it is going to take years.

Thomas, who also won silver and bronze medals on the 2020 Tokyo Summer Olympics, detailed how her meditation practice became an enormous a part of her success.

“I wake up and exercise for five minutes in the morning and then incorporate it into my warm-up during training and competition,” she said. “A lot of it is breath work, but a lot of it is just focusing on being in the present moment, not on the past or the future.”

When it involves living within the moment, Thomas noted that she has been “underestimated” throughout her life – “in the classroom at Harvard” where she was a student-athlete, and “going on to be an Olympian” – but she has learned to show all those doubts into competitive fuel.

I think it gave me more confidence over time,” Thomas boasted. “I once proved myself right and proved to myself that I can do what I’m working on. That’s why I want everyone to see it. I want everyone – younger runners, younger girls who want to do whatever they want – to believe they can if they work for it.”
