Photos of this German Runner Are Going Viral As She Prepares For Tokyo 2020

Alica Schmidt, a talented middle distance runner from Germany, is already receiving a lot of attention ahead of the 2020 Tokyo Summer Olympic Games. Unfortunately for Schmidt, not all of this attention is exactly what she had been hoping for.

On the Starting Line

The Tokyo Olympic Games are drawing nearer, and with them, the chance for a new generation of athletes to make their mark on the world. One such Olympic hopeful is Alica Schmidt.

Racing to Succeed

The 21-year old Schmidt is a talented middle distance runner. She’s already made a splash, helping Germany to win a silver medal in the 4x400m relay at the European Under-20 Athletics Championships.

A Second Talent

Of course, while her track record is impressive, there is another reason why Schmidt is receiving so much attention from the international community: her Instagram account is amazing.

’Gram Worthy

Schmidt’s Instagram is filled with incredible photos, mostly showing off her training and track event victories, and she makes the act of running look incredibly glamorous.
