Athletes that will retire after Paris 2024

One interesting and good sign for Mu was during her post worlds interview she said something like "we have years to go so I need to pace myself" I would be very surprised if she retires before LA olympics. Everyone has ups and downs.

At least half of the BTC runners.

Seems to me Galen Rupp should be on that list. He'll be late 30s and with years of injuries piling up, I can see him rallying to make one more marathon team, but after that?

Oh, I see, I got it. The message of the OP was a bit tricky, otherwise it is completely useless.
He means they will retire AFTER Paris 2024, but not exactly JUST AFTER FINISHING COMPETING in Paris 2024. For sure, ALL OF THEM will retire AT SOME POINT after the PARIS 2024. Maybe a few in 2024, others in 2025, 2026, 2027, 2028, etc.
The only one of that list that could have difficulties to be on his national squad is Yohan Blake, and that could mean he retires before the Olympics, but many others would love to be as fast as him with his age.

First name I thought of

Retire after Paris?

All of them as it seems unlikely any will retire before Paris

Assuming she even makes the team - Jamaica's got new hungry talented women on the way up and unless SAFP's winter training goes REALLY well she knows she's behind Richardson anyway now.

GALEN RUPP

kipchoge?

Evan Jager

I'm gonna be honest I assumed he took the David Rudisha route and just never formally announced his retirement. He was already on his way out when I first started seriously following the sport (2019)

Has anyone mentioned Kate Grace? Maybe she's already retired and is focusing on motherhood.

Josh Kerr will retire from the track and move to the roads to build for a marathon. Hopefully.

There is a world championship in 2025. I would bet quite a few of those athletes would at least want to stay in the sport until after the 25’ champs.

It wouldn't surprise me if Filip Ingebrigtsen retires during 2024. If he doesn't qualify for the Olympics I think it's over. There's no point in putting so much time and resources into DNFing races because the body won't cooperate. Flagstaff, Dullstroom, Sierra Nevada, St. Moritz, etc. Months away from his wife & child with little to show for it.

Who knows what the future brings. Would be cool if he decided to launch/coach a mid distance training group in the Oslo region.

Kerley has really already retired once (from 400m), so will these two be his retirements from 100m and 200m?

Genuine question: Courtney Frerichs? Can see 2024, but after? Health woes have been really tough of late

I agree, Filip either needs to move to the longer distances or just hang up the spikes on a super competitive level. It feels like he has DNF’d 80% of his races this season, and has struggled in breaking 3:40 all season when he was running sub 3:33 only two years ago before the Olympics. Besides, Norway already has two global medalists in Jakob and Nordås, so having Filip on the team wouldn’t make sense when guys like Even Dahl and Magnus Tuv Mhyre have run 3:37 this season and have more room to improve.
