EUGENE, Ore. -- Enjoying retired life, Allyson Felix was eating hot wings and sipping on a root beer float in Los Angeles when the phone rang.
She was needed back in Oregon for the prelims of the 4x400 women's relay. Could she return to world championships? She was on her way.
The most decorated sprinter in U.S. history jumped on a plane and was on the track Saturday night for the "last" time to help the Americans advance to the final.
And back into retirement she goes. She said she will watch the final of the women's 4x400 on Sunday from the seats.
