ATHLOS Is Heading To London As Global Expansion Begins
ATHLOS, the all-female track meet event created by Alexis Ohanian, co-founder of Reddit and husband to Serena Williams is heading to London for the first time in 2026 as part of an expanded two-day event, the other being in New York.
The prize pot is a massive £1.5m and athletes will be offered equity in the league with the idea being that they will be rewarded if its successful. Alexis Ohanian has said that he hopes the competition can become the “Formula 1 of track and field”
So far, American Sha’Carri Richardson, Gabby Thomas, Tara Woodhall-Davis, Masai Russell and Dominican sprinter Marileidy Paulino have been confirmed for the events at the StoneX Stadium in Barnet, home of rugby union side Saracens, on 18th September and the Icahn Stadium in New York two weeks later.
If athletes compete at both events then the athlete with the highest cumulative points across both cities wins the $25k bonus and the iconic Tiffany & Co. crown.
