Aly Raisman ‘already back in the gym’ after 2020 Olympics comments
Aly Raisman took a break to eat some french fries and meet Zac Efron, but that appears to be the extent of her relaxation.
In an Instagram post from Thursday evening, barely days after winning her third medal at the Rio Olympics, Raisman shared a picture of herself in the gym.

“Already back in the gym,” Raisman captioned. Beyond the obvious assertions about her relentless work ethic, it raises initial questions about her future in gymnastics. In a recent interview, the 22-year-old didn’t rule out a pursuit of a spot on the U.S. team in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.
Raisman at 2020 Olys? “I said I get better w/ age, so maybe I will,” she says. Seriously considering it. Will think RE it post-tour #Rio2016

And if Raisman did make it to another Olympics in four years, she would be the first U.S. gymnast since Dominique Dawes to make the team three times.
