The most decorated female athlete in Olympics history is making a comeback. Sprinter Allyson Felix, 40, told TIME that she’s preparing to try out for her sixth Olympic Games in Los Angeles in 2028. Felix, who debuted her film about the lack of maternal protections for female athletes, She Runs the World, at the Tribeca Film Festival last summer, told TIME that her attempt to make the Olympic team is a “live experiment in human potential.” If she succeeds, Felix won’t be the oldest runner to make the Olympics — that record belongs to Merlene Ottey, 44 at the time — but TIME notes that the U.S. Olympic sprint team is “one of the most difficult in the world to make.”
