| Kellogg Company x Simone Biles |
First-time Olympian built on the motivation from teammates to realize her dreams and achieve her goals
Simone Biles, U.S. Olympic gymnast and member of Team Kellogg's,
took the gold medal yesterday in the floor competition, bringing her
total to five total medals at the Olympic Games. Biles finished with a
score of 15.966 in the floor competition to win gold, adding to her
collection of gold in the team competition, individual all-around and
vault competitions, as well as bronze on balance beam.
"I'm thrilled
that I was able to share my first Olympic Games experience with my U.S.
teammates," said Biles. "The support down here in Rio has been amazing –
between my family, Team USA and Team Kellogg's I've felt so much love. This whole experience has been a dream come true."
What Gets Simone Biles Started? She
credits her teammates. With an ever-expanding collection of medals and
her own signature move, she's one of the best gymnasts in the world. So
to get away from it all, she goes to… the gym. It's there with her
teammates that Simone truly has fun and enjoys the sport. It's good to
surround yourself with winners, on and off the mat.
