The 2024 World Indoor Marathon in Glasgow ignited the global competitions ahead of the Paris 2024 Olympics, raising the bar high. The three-day event saw the best of the best battle it out at the Commonwealth Arena, fighting for their well-deserved world titles. Among the array of track stars, Tara Davis-Woodhall shone, clinching the gold medal with a remarkable jump of 7.07 meters.

Alongside Tara stood Nikki Hiltz, renowned as the first non-binary athlete to seize a U.S. track and field title, securing the silver medal in the women’s 1500m with a personal best time of 4:02.32. Despite their victories weeks ago, the two finally stepped onto the podium for their ‘Proper Medal Ceremony’ in a special initiative.
