[Wiederganger]

2015 World 100mh silver medalist, and multiple european medalist, Cindy Roleder (33) is retiring after the indoor season. It looks like she will do some indoor 60mh races as well as a pentathlon.

You do realise he'd have to beat 9.93?

Impossible.

Impossible is for to to run 19.93 in 100m. My daughter clock (Yes Clock) me 25+ in December of 2022. I am doing stretches and hope to go 22-23 soon.
No, I am not retiring

I just saw Tiffany Ofili Porter's retirement announcement. It's always bittersweet when athletes decide to retire, but it sounds like she's excited about her next chapter. I'm sure she's got great plans for the future. I've been thinking about retirement lately, so seeing other people take that leap is always inspiring.For anyone else thinking about retirement, I recently stumbled upon an interesting article on https://seekingretirement.com/tag/early-retirement that talks about early retirement. It has some great tips and ideas for achieving financial independence and retiring earlier than the standard age.

She actually retired over a year ago: https://tiffofili.com/2022/02/05/hello-world/
But yes always bittersweet, but she has been involved in the sport pretty heavily the past year anyway. She does on the field announcing for meets (NYC Grand Prix, New Balance Indoor Grand Prix) and a lot of other stuff as well.
