Simone Biles met Olympic sprinter Allyson Felix over FaceTime after the gymnast followed her fellow gold medalist from Nike to Athleta

• American gold medal sprinter Allyson Felix left Nike for Athleta in 2019.
• Two years later, superstar gymnast Simone Biles followed suit.
• The two Olympians met over FaceTime to discuss Athleta, Felix's daughter, Cammy, and more.

Simone Biles and Allyson Felix are both legends in the gym and on the track.

And in recent years, they've grown into trailblazers outside of their respective sports, too. Both left Nike, the titans of the sportswear space, and each of their longtime sponsors, for a fresh start with Athleta. And just this week, the pair of superstar Olympians met for the first time.

Felix welcomed the 24-year-old gymnast to the Athleta team and told her "I cannot wait to cheer you on" in Tokyo. Biles, for her part, said she's "admired [Felix] and Athleta for a really long time." Then she complimented Felix's young daughter, Cammy, and said it was "so cute" when the toddler greeted her lightning-quick mom after her race at US Olympic trials.

The 35-year-old sprinter was the first of the two to part ways with Nike. Though the massive sportswear brand capitalized on the six-time gold medalist's dominance for most of the 2010s, Felix revealed in a bombshell op-ed she wrote for The New York Times back in May of 2019 that the company was far from supportive when she was pregnant with her daughter, Cammy.

Biles followed suit this year. And on her way out, the superstar gymnast implied that Nike did not support her adequately "as an individual."

"I felt like it wasn't just about my achievements, it's what I stood for and how they were going to help me use my voice and also be a voice for females and kids," Biles told The Wall Street Journal's Louise Radnofsky about her deal with Athleta. "I feel like they also support me, not just as an athlete, but just as an individual outside of the gym and the change that I want to create, which is so refreshing."

"Athleta is committed to diversity and inclusion, of all women, backgrounds, ages, sizes, abilities, and races," she added.

Felix and Biles will both compete at the Tokyo Olympics in a few short weeks. Biles will kickoff her swansong alongside her Team USA counterparts during qualification on Sunday, July 25. Felix, meanwhile, has qualified for the 400-meter event and will look to make the final on August 6.
