Such an incredible time at the @Nike Unlimited Air Experience in Milan! 🌬️👟
Cool to dive into the Air Archives & see the expansion into apparel.
I even got to model the @Nike Therma-FIT Air Milano Jacket (the same one Team USA wears on the podium)! 🇺🇸🧥✨ Huge thanks to @Nike !

Loved being part of this VERY important conversation on @BBCWSSport ! Please check it out when you get a moment!

[BBC World Service Sport @BBCWSSport]

Eight African nations will be at the Winter Olympics. In over six decades since an African nation made its Winter Olympics debut, the continent's first medal remains elusive 🏅🌍

Can they end that at @milanocortina26?

@ProfScoobie @UKJAMschool Thx so much for your support @ProfScoobie and @UKJAMschool 💙

[Simidele Adeagbo @SimiSleighs]

My heart is so full.❤️

Thank you for the incredible messages over the last few days. They’ve been a massive source of light and truly lifted my spirits when I needed it most.

[Simidele Adeagbo @SimiSleighs]

Thx for seeing me & celebrating me not just in the moments of triumph, but in the trials, too. It’s a beautiful reminder that my value isn’t defined by a single race, but by the heart I put into this journey. I see you, appreciate you, & I’m grateful to be on the journey together

[Simidele Adeagbo @SimiSleighs]

There is no finish line. The journey to open more doors continues.
You don’t need a podium to be a champion; you just need the courage to change the game. 🏆
Thx so much for ur support on the journey. 🙏🏿Good luck to everyone in Cortina! 🛷

[Simidele Adeagbo @SimiSleighs]

For the last 8 years, I chased a finish line. But along the way, I moved it. 🏁
In 2022, men had 3x more Olympic bobsleigh spots than women. I chose to challenge that system, even when I felt alone.
Now, the 2026 Games will see the largest expansion in history.

[Simidele Adeagbo @SimiSleighs]

My goal was never just to occupy space, but to widen it for everyone—regardless of gender, geography, or ethnicity. ❄️
These victories are bigger than bobsleigh. They are more lasting than anything I could have accomplished on the ice alone.
