Thomas had stayed formidable in the 200m when she won the US Olympics trials before doing the same at the London Diamond League ahead of her heroics in Paris.
“Quite literally the best year of my life, can’t wait for 2025,” Thomas posted on TikTok.

'It is really embarrassing'- Gabby Thomas reveals one cringe routine that fueled her to Olympic triumph in Paris
Gabby Thomas revealed the one thing that she does, though embarrassing, that helps manage her heart rate.
She completed her season at the Athlos women’s-only meet in New York where she finished second in 200m but there was no denying that she was the most outstanding female American sprinter this year.
That was confirmed in November when she was named the US Track and Field Female Athlete of the Year ahead of the gala in Florida in December and she now looks forward to a 2025 that will bring its own challenges.
“Another year, more to be grateful for,” she posted on Instagram.
Thomas’ critics claimed that her work was made easier in 2024 due to the absence of Jamaicans Shericka Jackson and Elaine Thompson-Herah, who missed the Olympics due to injuries, but she has the chance to silence her doubters at the 2025 World Championships
