In Conversation: Allyson Felix

The most decorated track and field athlete in history Allyson Felix sits down with 成人论坛 100 Women to discuss what needs to be done to improve maternal health and safety for women in sport.

With a record 20 World Championship medals and 11 Olympic medals to her name, Allyson Felix is the most decorated track and field athlete in history. A dangerous pregnancy and the death of a close friend turned her into a fierce advocate for better maternal healthcare for black women.

The retired athlete was behind the first nursery ever to open in an Olympic village, during the Paris 2024 games, and is now a member of the International Olympic Committee Athletes' Commission. 成人论坛 100 Women sat down with Felix to talk about the challenges of combining motherhood and elite sport, and improving working conditions and safety for women athletes.
