This one's for the moms.
Allyson Felix is now the most decorated female Olympian in track and field history, and she joins Carl Lewis as the only two Americans to win double-digit medals on the track.
The 35-year-old has six golds, three silvers and now a bronze she described as "very different" and "very special," in large part because it's her first as a mom.
"It's hard to describe because I feel like all the other ones, I was really just so focused on the performance. And this one, it's just so much bigger than that," Felix said. "That's all I can kind of explain it as – I was out there running, but I felt like I was a representation for so much more than just trying to get down the track."
