Hey Athletic Fans,

Before you call it a night, here are some updates from the Olympics world. How does taking time off an application end up helping someone beat an Olympic champion and break a 44-year-old record? Well… it did. More on that below. And yes, an Olympic champion is also set for a historic moment, taking the Queen’s spot (in just this one way).

⚡Why This Matters: This marks a historic shift and is a great honor for the man who won the first Olympic medal for his nation.



▶️WATCH: Mexico fans are always a little extra. When El Tri broke the knockout curse. One of those fans even got a jersey for his dog and was filmed dancing with the dog in jersey with utter joy.


Today marks a milestone as Carl Lewis turns 65. With 9 Olympic gold medals and 1 silver, he stands as the most decorated American male track Olympian of all time.

Did you know: He also once held a remarkable 65-meet winning streak in the long jump over a span of 10 years?
