Gabby Thomas’s achievements in the track and field circuit make her an extremely successful athlete. She was last seen competing at the 2023 World Championships. Since then, the athlete has been spending time with her friends and family.

Recently, the celebrated athlete was spotted attending the New York Marathon in November. She was there to support her friends. Thomas shared stories of her mates running and also of her handing them their finisher’s medals.

However, before the race had begun, Thomas’s fans speculated that the sprinter was competing in the marathon. She clarified during her interview with Footwear News that she wasn't:

"I have a couple of friends who are running, but I am definitely not — at all.”

She also added:

“Maybe one day — maybe a half-marathon long after I retire,” she said.

Moreover, she was visiting the event due to her collaboration with New Balance. That marathon saw Kenyan middle-distance runner Hellen Obir winning the women’s category with a timing of 2:27:33s. Ethiopian runner Tamirat Tola won the men’s marathon by clocking 2:04:58.
