RUNNING THROUGH: Tara Davis, Olympian & Long Jumper

Welcome to RUNNING THROUGH, a 5-day series on Hurdle showcasing stories of women who used running to get through tough life #hurdlemoments. You guys know the deal: Here on the show, I’m dedicated to bringing Hurdlers content that encompasses all aspects of wellness. Still, running holds a special place in my heart. While I originally leaned into running as a weight loss tool back in college, it’s turned into a passion of mine, helping me get through some of my biggest hurdle moments and connect on a deeper level with so many.

This week, in celebration of Global Running Day, we'll get vulnerable talking about tough topics like loss and grief, depression and postpartum depression, and how running and sport has helped them persevere, rediscover their self worth, and put on a brave face. For today’s episode I am chatting with Tara Davis, Olympian, Long Jumper, and new Lululemon ambassador. She talks to me about her come up: How she got to where she is today, what it felt like to be a crowd favorite at the 2020 Olympic Trials, and how she navigates negative feedback. Plus: What it's like to have a fiance (Hey, Hunter) who is also a stellar athlete, and how she navigated depressive symptoms before making her first Olympic team.
