Olympic gold medalist Allyson Felix stopped by “The Tonight Show” Friday night to speak with Jay Leno about her performance at the London Games, her future as a competitor and a childhood nickname she can’t seem to escape.
Wearing a long-sleeve red dress, the track and field star discussed her three gold medal victories in the 200-meter, 4x400-meter relay and 4x100-meter relay in London.
She said one of her proudest moments was seeing her parents after her races. In fact, she keeps her gold medals at her parents’ house.And they have a lot to brag about. In London, Felix, 26, became the first U.S. woman to win three golds in Olympic track and field since 1988. She also became the second to win Olympic gold at the 4x100 and 4x400 either at one Games or all-time.
When asked what she did after her victories, Felix said she indulged by asking her brother to buy her Ben and Jerry’s Oatmeal Cookie Chunk ice cream.
