Gabby Thomas (born December 7, 1996)[2] is an American track-and-field athlete. She is the second-fastest woman of all time in the 200 meters with her result of 21.61 seconds, which was set at the 2020 US Olympic trials.
Thomas was born December 7, 1996 in Atlanta, Georgia to Jennifer Randall and Desmond Thomas. She has a twin brother named Andrew.[3] Thomas is African-American on her mother's side and Jamaican on her father's side. In 2007, Randall moved the family to Massachusetts to teach at the University of Massachusetts after completing her PhD at Emory University. While the family settled in Florence, Massachusetts, Thomas initially considered softball, then joined the track and field team.[3] Thomas was inspired to run by Allyson Felix, stating that her first memory of a track race was watching Felix while at her grandmother's house. In high school, Thomas ran all 4 years for Williston Northampton School where she set multiple school records, was MVP every year, and was coached by Michelle Lawson.

A graduate of Harvard University, she studied neurobiology and global health as an undergraduate. While at Harvard, Thomas won 22 conference titles across her three years of athletics in six different events, setting the school and Ivy League records in the 100 meters, 200 meters, and the indoor 60 meters. She signed a contract with New Balance and turned pro in October 2018, forgoing her last year of collegiate eligibility.

Thomas is expected to represent the United States in the 200 meter race at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.[14] Her time of 21.61 seconds in the event at the United States Olympic trials on June 26th, 2021 was the 3rd-fastest ever, surpassed only by world record holder Florence Griffith-Joyner.[2] The time even surprised Thomas herself; after the race, she said "It definitely changed how I view myself as a runner. I am still in shock... my dream was to make the Olympic team... Now that I've accomplished [that], I'm going to set higher goals.
