"a series ......  🤍," she wrote over the photos.

The tour began in Oceanside, Calif., in early September, just a few weeks after the 2024 Summer Olympics, where Biles earned four medals and become an 11-time Olympic medalist.

Before the tour's start, Biles told PEOPLE that she was "excited" to go on tour after taking some time off to help her prepare "mentally and physically."

"Truthfully, I’ve only gone into the gym to practice a handful of times because of my schedule. I've barely been home, but my body needed this break, so I’m not mad about it," she said at the time.

Days before the tour ended, Biles received a visit from her husband, Chicago Bears football safety Jonathan Owens, who took advantage of his Bye Week to spend time with his loved one.

Biles chronicled his visit in an Instagram post that included photos of the two at an arcade and having lunch together.

"That's the one thing that she would just have to figure out for herself. And like I said, man, I'm here to support her a thousand percent and whatever she decides to do."
