Tori Bowie is entered in both the 100m and 200m at the world track and field championships, but that doesn’t mean the triple Rio medalist will race both sprints.
“My team and I decided that I should just take each race one race at a time,” Bowie said Thursday. “Depending on how I’m feeling after the 100m, try to go for the 200m as well.”
Bowie earned 100m silver, 200m bronze and 4x100m gold at her first Olympics in Rio, two years after switching from the long jump to full-time sprinting.
She has been focused on the 100m all season but also reached a goal in running a 200m personal best on May 27.
