Alica Schmidt Runs!

Alica Schmidt may not have won the Olympics, but she won the hearts and minds of the people of the internet back at the last Olympics she wasn't even competing in.

She ended up taking that viral moment and turning it into a business that she could monetize on. Being named the world's sexiest athlete was a big deal at the time.

Unlike most influencers who allow that easy money to make them lazy, she decided to commit to her sport and get to the next Olympics, which recently took place.

Most professional track athletes need to work day jobs, the money isn't really there for them, but Alica was getting paid as an influencer and able to re-invest in herself.

The bucket-list moment was achieved this past summer, but it seems she's still on the track working hard for another go. She's got 4 years to train, so no time like the present to get started!
