Podcasts about Valarie Allman

Valarie Allman just became the first American woman to win back-to-back gold medals in the women's discus. She took the lead with a 68.74m throw that put her in first place and she never relinquished it. She had four throws that would have won the competition. Her best throw went 69.50m, which won the competition by nearly two meters. We had a chance to speak with her and coach Zebulon Sion at Asics House in Paris just two days after her historic victory.

Valarie Allman is reigning Olympic champion for the women's discus and has also won bronze and silver at the last two editions of the World Championships.She tells The Warm Up Track how she and her coach figured out ‘the master of all puzzles' to win Olympic gold in Tokyo. Valarie explains how, starting out, they sought to break the mould of how previous US throwers had prepared for global championships, and that strategy was to face her main rivals as often as possible on the circuit. But, having succeeded in that, the pandemic then took away that opportunity to compete.Valarie says that actually helped her fall back in love with the sport – all of which set up her Olympic gold medal winning season in 2021. She tells us how it felt silly telling herself she was going to win Olympic gold – but how, after a while, those affirmations began to feel authentic.Young Valarie was a dancer, so what was it like to be around the TV show ‘So You Think You Can Dance' at weekends, and then being back in Middle School during the week? Also find out how the prospect of a spaghetti dinner encouraged her to try out for the discus in High School and what it meant the day she could throw as far as the prairie dog hole on the school field. Plus, how having an older brother helped develop her competitiveness, and which Frank Sinatra song she's really taken to heart.Image: Valarie Allman of Team United States celebrates with her countries flag after winning the gold medal in the Women's Discus Final on day ten of the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games at Olympic Stadium on August 02, 2021 in Tokyo, Japan.

“We are going into a new phase of track and field. And with that new phase, there has to be a new element. The standard is shifting, it's only a matter of time that the world record is in danger. I'm not saying by who, but I'm just saying that if the standard keeps on going lower… it's only a matter of time before 19.9 will get you sixth.”  2x Olympian Joseph Fahnbulleh joins us live in Eugene after competing at the African Championships this past week.

“As an athlete, you have those indicators that you look at, you track, you want to gain confidence from – and those have been going very well. But it's also that belief that this is going to be a really good year. We're going to accomplish our goals.

“The expectation was we want to chase this and put her on the line in a way to be able to compete. Physically, I think things went really smooth. This is probably the best build she's had in the eight years I've coached her. Mentally, it probably wasn't the best build. There were some battles that she faced and the race never tells the whole story. Being someone that saw what she overcame to make this team is what I think is going to make this one really special.”  Newly minted Olympian Courtney Wayment and Coach Diljeet Taylor join us live in Eugene after Courtney finished runner-up in the U.S. Olympic Trials steeplechase. Coach Taylor shares about Courtney's ability to overcome challenges as she worked towards the Trials and what it's been like coaching Courtney for the past eight years. Courtney shares about having “the best support system in the world” at BYU with past and present teammates, her training partners, and family. She also shares about her progression over the past few years that's helped her rise to the world-class athlete that she's become.
