Simone Biles, the most decorated gymnast in history, expressed uncertainty about competing in the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles due to personal priorities and the physical demands of gymnastics at age 31. In a recent interview, she discussed her commitment to enjoying life with her husband and recognized that preparing for the Olympics is a significant time investment. Biles highlighted her experiences at the Paris Olympics, where her body suffered in recovery. Though she plans to attend the Games, her future in competition remains unclear, prioritizing her health and well-being first.
I'm really trying to enjoy life, to spend time with my husband [NFL player Jonathan Owens], go support him at his games, live my life as a woman.
A lot of people think it's just a one-year commitment but it truly is the four years leading up to the Olympics.
I went back to the [Olympic] village, I took the elevator and my body literally collapsed. I was sick for 10 days.
2028 seems so far away, and my body is aging. I felt it in Paris.
