He gave an emotional speech on ESPN after the race about his journey through his mental health crisis that went viral. He also helped found the Cards All In initiative that provides resources, support and peer support for athletes that are struggling with mental health issues.

At the height of her career, &#8220;the fastest woman in the world&#8221; used her platform to shed light on social issues. Rudolph competed in the 1956 Olympic Games and won a bronze medal in the 4&#215;100 relay. Four years later, she headed to the 1960 Summer Olympics\u00a0determined to earn gold. Her performance in Rome cemented her as one of the greatest athletes of the 20th century. She won three gold medals and broke several world records. Rudolph became the first American woman to win three gold medals in track and field at the same Olympic Games. The indoor track and dormitory at Tennessee State University are named in honor of Rudolph. She died of a brain tumor on November 12, 1994.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About N4A:<\/strong>\u00a0N4A, which has been in existence since 1975, is a diverse educational service and professional non-profit organization.
