Schmidt, 24, enjoyed a stunning 2022, recently sharing a compilation of her year to Instagram.
And it looks like 2023 has got off to a great start too.
Alica showed off her hurdle warm-up techniques last weekend, working on her craft in Paris.

She has since enjoyed a bit of time off.
On her Instagram story, she snared a snap of herself relaxing by the sea yesterday.
She captioned it: "Quick nap at the beach".
After a speedy dip in the ocean, the athlete enjoyed the stunning desert.
Alongside friends, she shared a video of herself walking along sandy dunes.

She then posted a screenshot of her latest BeReal snap, taking a selfie with pals in front of palm trees, as they watched the sun go down.
Alica then wrote "Grateful" alongside a picture of herself stood on a sandy dune in front of the glorious sunset.
And she then took care not to slip as she edged herself down a sandy incline.
Alica had to empty her trainers of sand after the visit - and later picked up a tasty looking ice cream.
