'I did it for the people'- Usain Bolt on how fans affection influenced his decision to postpone retirement by one year

As a sign of appreciation for the good deeds that have happened to the 2024-year-old who finished third at the inaugural women'-only Athlos event in September, the track sensation took to her X platform, "You don't get in life what you want, you get in life what you are."
This is a quote by Les Brown. It suggests that what you get out of life is a reflection of who you are, and that you should consider what you are giving out.

'It creates that feeling of superiority' – Gabby Thomas on the mental edge of winning before Paris
American sprinter Gabby Thomas shares how winning before Paris Olympics fueled confidence culminating in three gold medals and historic success.
Russell showed her own fighting qualities in the scrap for the Olympic 100m hurdles title after she slugged her way into contention off the final barrier in the Stade de France in August, delivering the knockout blow to the big home hope with her lunge for the line.
She prevailed in 12.33 seconds, 0.01s ahead of the French athlete Cyrena Samba-Mayela, with defending champion Jasmine Camacho-Quinn of Puerto Rico third in 12.36 seconds.
Masai's crazy season also included a fourth place finish at the Diamond League Meeting in Silesia and placed second at the Grand Prix Lombardia. She started off with a series of indoor races before competing at the World Indoor Championships where she finished fourth.
