In 2022 @JaneeNae24 became the first Native American woman to win a medal at the World Athletics Championships. “It was the most rewarding, honouring, humbling moment when it actually arrived.” – but her bronze medal was worth so much more. 📝 bit.ly/JaneeWarrior

"Life is still hard for so many indigenous communities, and I know a lot of people living in them, who feel they can’t get out. If I can be that shining light or a positive impact for them, that’s what I want." @JaneeNae24 writes about representation and strong role models.

Pro debut – nailed it! ✌️ Julien Alfred really lets the results speak for themselves: 10.89 FTW in Szekesfehervar. Why the @TexasTFXC alum takes things "one race at a time". 📝 bit.ly/JuliensRace

"You can do anything you put your mind to. That’s what she used to tell us, and that was the biggest lesson; no matter what goes on, if you want to do something, all you have to do is put your mind to it, strive for it and work hard for it" @Mr_Jumps_ on his biggest role model📝

I love this piece from Nozomi Tanaka. The concept of Nyu-sho (similar to being All-American in the NCAA) is great. And it gives more people something big to strive for. worldathletics.org/spikes/news/no…
