Track to Tech: Gabby Thomas Joins Amazfit Wearables
Olympic medalist Gabby Thomas has signed a four-year partnership with Amazfit, the smart wearable brand named Hyrox’s official wearable and timekeeping partner
Five-time Olympic medalist Gabby Thomas has joined Amazfit, a global smart wearables brand under Zepp Health, as an ambassador through a four-year partnership.
She is one of several high-profile figures who have been named brand ambassadors in the health and wellness space recently, alongside model Ashley Graham for supplement gummy brand Olly and Super Bowl champion Cooper DeJean of the Philadelphia Eagles for Renpho, a recovery and wellness tech brand.
Thomas, a U.S. track and field athlete, will wear Amazfit smartwatches during training, competition, and sleep—tracking her recovery and sleep health while using the device’s analysis to enhance her performance.
“I’m really excited to partner with Amazfit because, for me, the little things make all the difference,” Thomas said. “As an athlete, this is the exact type of partnership that will help me continue to get better. It’s so important to have objective data on my body—whether it’s tracking my heart rate during a workout, seeing how well I’ve recovered, or understanding how much quality sleep I’m getting. Having a reliable smart wearable brand like Amazfit in my corner is a game-changer.”
Thomas will also collaborate with Amazfit’s development and design teams, providing insights and feedback on product features and styles.
She joins other Amazfit athletes, including Hyrox world champions Meg Jacoby and Hunter McIntyre, padel star Bea González, and Olympians Morgan Pearson (triathlon) and Yemaneberhan “Yeman” Crippa (5K & 10K).
Last fall, Hyrox announced a two-year partnership with Zepp Health, where Amazfit will serve as the competitive racing company’s official wearable and timekeeping partner and support its 300,000 athletes per season across the U.S. and Europe.
“We are honored to have Gabby join the Amazfit team,” Zepp Health founder and CEO Wayne Huang said. “Her remarkable athletic career and passion for style align closely with our mission to unlock the limits of human potential to ‘Discover Amazing.’ Through this partnership, we will continue to empower athletes to unleash their full potential by rewriting the record books utilizing our advanced smart wearables ecosystem.”
In addition to Amazfit’s product line of smartwatches, the wearable company also offers open-ear earbuds and the Helio Ring, a subscription-free wearable ring that tracks health metrics and recovery.
