Is there anything Alexis Ohanian would do that his elder daughter Olympia won’t participate in? Probably nothing! The Reddit co-founder organized the largest women-only track and field event in New York yesterday, and his elder daughter was the one who stole the limelight. Showing her enthusiasm for her father’s dreams of equality, Olympia ran on the track field, offering great hope of being the perfect legacy-bearer of this empowering thought.

Serena Williams’ husband walked a step forward toward his dream yesterday. His biggest track and field event, Athlos, took place in New York, with Kenya’s Faith Kipyegon earning her victory lap in the 1500-meter inaugural women-only event. With the goal of promoting female sports, especially women’s track and field athletes, Ohanian organized a one-of-a-kind event, gathering thousands of supporters at the city’s Icahn Stadium. Offering twice the prize money of the Diamond League, this Reddit co-founder ensured that each event’s winners received $60,000, with first-place finishers greeted with a custom Tiffany crown. The second-place athletes received $25,000, and the second runner-up received $10,000. Athlos NYC also pledged to offer 10% of the event’s entire revenue to the participants. A great initiative, isn’t it?

While the presence of talented female athletes already made the event star-studded, little Olympia couldn’t help but add her charm, making it an outstanding one. The X profile of Serena and Alexis’ elder daughter shared an image of her running happily on the track. Sharing the photo, she promoted her father’s event. Ohanian, a regular on X, reshared the tweet, adding, “She runs NY. Olympia had such a good time she asked to run the track at the end and I had to oblige. We gifted dozens of NY track youth tickets to this event because these kids deserve to be part of history – if they can see a professional path, everything changes.”

For Ohanian, supporting female athletes is a must. This businessman believes that support for female athletes shouldn’t be limited to social empowerment but must also be financial. In his dream, his daughters occupy a pivotal place as he intends to build an equal world in sports for them. Therefore, Olympia’s enthusiastic participation in the event was a great surprise for everyone.

Ohanian further tweeted another clip where Olympia competed with her cousin on the track, and her father started the stopwatch. While it goes without saying that Olympia won, her father’s pride and happiness were too adorable to miss. Sharing the clip, Ohanian wrote, “Jr insisted on racing her cousin… Papa had to oblige… @ATHLOS KIDS next???” His words echoed his happiness, fueling the excitement of his followers about a possible kids’ special track and field event in the future.

From the beginning, Alexis’ elder daughter Olympia has been excited about the event. Not to forget her fun TikTok moves while her daddy explained the importance of women’s sports. After that, her father revealed what this event meant for little Olympia.

Little Olympia attended the women-only track and field event offering more excitement to the crowd. During an interview when her father revealed what a great crowd they received, Olympia stole the limelight with her dance. Then her father delved deeper and revealed how happy his elder daughter had been participating in the event. “Lot of energy and everything. These ladies deserve and we know Olympia is having a good time and that’s all I care about,” said the Reddit co-founder.

Olympia’s enthusiastic presence surely contributed to the success of Athlos NYC. However, it was commendable to see how Alexis Ohanian enlightened his daughters about this event, expressing his dedication to uplifting women athletes. Following such motivational steps, Ohanian has surely won the hearts of the fraternity, showing how genuinely he promotes women’s sports.
