Outside the gym, I’m young—tequila with no hangovers. But in the gym? I feel old,” Biles added. “Maybe we could do something like tag? Tag beam, tag vault, tag floor, tag bars. Just tag someone else in!” she then quipped.Biles hasn’t entirely ruled out the 2028 Olympic competition, though. “Never say never,” Biles said. “Next Olympics are at home. So you just never know. I am getting really old.”I
