More about Allyson Felix Growing up in California, Allyson was nicknamed "Chicken Legs" for her lanky physique. Undeterred by the name-calling, she looked to make the most of her long legs and went out for the high school track team. She excelled from the start, within a year finishing seventh in the 200-meter dash at the CIF California State Meet, eventually becoming a five-time winner at the event. At the age of 18, Allyson won a silver medal at the 2004 Olympic Games in Athens. She went on to compete at the 2008, 2012, 2016, and 2020 Olympics, winning a total of 11 medals, seven gold, three silver, and one bronze. She is currently the most decorated woman in U.S. track and field history.
Today, as a professional athlete, mother, wife, and business executive, Allyson uses her platform to put the spotlight on efforts that support inclusivity, equity, and diversity in women’s sports and business. In 2019, Allyson became Athleta’s first-ever sponsored athlete. Through the partnership, she has championed several initiatives to empower women and girls through sports including The Power of She Fund, a first-of-its-kind childcare grant program to help fund childcare costs for mothers who are also athletes. Allyson is also the Founder of Saysh, a community-centered lifestyle brand that creates products for, and by, women.
