Previously, Thomas said that American track star Allyson Felix, who's won Olympic medals since 2004, was her idol.

"I remember sitting in my granny’s house, and my mom told me to turn on Olympic Trials because she saw someone who reminded her of me,” Thomas said of Felix after her win.

In addition to breaking records, she's also studying for her master's in epidemiology at the University of Texas.

She hopes to land a future career in global health and health policy, according to On Her Turf.
