Writing Down Her Goals

Simone Biles holds a combined total of 32 Olympic and World Championship medals, tied with Shannon Miller as the most decorated gymnast of all time. Biles and Miller are also tied for the most Olympic medals won by an American gymnast.

Biles is so happy being airborne. She jumps, dances and flies through the air with a body that is small, powerful and tremendously agile. Given her athletic prowess and complicated personal history in gymnastics, Simone Biles will improve gymnastics forever.

She is not done yet with gymnastics, committed not only to performing — how, where and when is not known yet — but also in her role of bird-dogging the sport on behalf of other young women gymnasts.
