Tracksmith at
U.S. Champs '22
Our Amateur Support Program aims to help athletes compete on the national stage. We’re proud to have over 40 athletes (21 men and 23 women) wearing Tracksmith across almost every discipline at the U.S. Championships this weekend in Eugene. Six Amateur Support Program athletes are ranked in the top five for their event and 12 are ranked in the top 10. Events begin today, Thursday, June 23rd.
A FEW ATHLETES TO WATCH
3000M STEEPLECHASE
ASP Steeple Women
Our strong continent of ASP women taking part in the grueling barrier race will be looking to draw upon the successes of last year’s steeplechase Olympians from the ASP program. Competing in the steeple: Carmen Graves, Alexina Teubel, Judi Jones, Meredith Rizzo and Caroline Austin.
110M HURDLES
Aaron Mallet
& Freddie Crittenden
Aaron and Freddie come into perhaps the feature event of the trials with an outside shot of sneaking onto the podium. When there are ten barriers between the blocks and the finish line, anything can happen.
JAVELIN
Kara Winger
In her final season, Kara looks to cap off an incredible career, which includes three Olympic appearances with one final chance to represent her country. If she makes it in the top three, she goes to Worlds.
800M/1500M
Charlene Lipsey
A World finalist in 2017, Charlene is now on the comeback trail after several frustrating years of injuries. She’s now hitting her stride right when it matters, running 2:00 for the 800m in New York last week.
HAMMER THROW
Rudy Winkler
His U.S. record throw at the Olympic Trials made him a favorite at the Olympic Games. Tokyo didn’t turn out the way he hoped, so he’s on a mission to regain that form he found in Eugene last year.
