The Olympics and Brussels Diamond League might be over, but hold onto your seats because the 2024 track and field season isn’t finished yet! Up next is the Athlos NYC—a track and field meet just for the ladies. They’re all set to bring their A-game, and it’s going to be awesome! This women-only event was dreamt up by Alexis Ohanian, Reddit’s co-founder and Serena Williams’ husband. And guess who was the first athlete to sign up? Drumroll, please! Gabby Thomas, the American track star who signed on months ago and dazzled with three gold medals at the Paris Olympics, is already ramping up the excitement with just over a week to go.

So why the focus on women’s track and field? Ohanian believes this sport is on the brink of capturing the same hype as women’s soccer and basketball. “A lot of people are saying this right now about women’s soccer. A lot of people are saying this right now about women’s basketball. I really believe people will be saying this about track in three years, four years. That’s why I’m investing in such a big way today.” So, how can you catch all the high-octane action of this groundbreaking event?
