Alexis Ohanian Explains Why He's Investing In And Elevating Women's Track And Launching Athlos NYC | LIVE FROM PARIS

While in Paris, we had the chance to chat with Alexis Ohanian about his latest venture, ATHLOS NYC – a women’s track event aiming to inspire the next generation of athletes.

The Reddit co-founder discusses the motivations behind his investment in the sport, drawing parallels with his successful foray into women’s soccer with Angel City FC.

Ohanian emphasizes the potential of track and field to captivate audiences beyond the Olympic Games. The meet has already attracted an impressive roster of athletes competing including world record-holder Faith Kipyegon and Olympic medalist Gabby Thomas.

The event promises to be more than just a typical track meet. In addition to featuring top-tier competition and substantial prize money, there will also be a musical performance by Grammy-winning artist Megan Thee Stallion.

Watch and hear more as Ohanian shares his vision for making track and field a mainstay in the cultural psyche and his commitment to elevating the sport through innovative fan experiences and high-profile engagements.
