Valarie Allman took her place atop the discus world yet again. 

The American captured her second consecutive gold medal in discus on Monday after taking home the gold three years earlier in Tokyo during the 2020 Olympics.

She bested the world’s top female discus athletes with a throw of 69.50 meters on her fourth throw, which gave her plenty of space between the eventual silver medalist, Bin Feng of China, and bronze winner, Sandra Elkasevi of Croatia — who both threw 67.51 meters.

She became the first American woman to win two gold medals in the event. 

Allman’s four non-foul throws all surpassed Feng’s best throw during the competition.

“I am on cloud nine. I am so happy and grateful for how the competition played out,” Allman told Irish broadcaster RTE Sport. “The discus is such a strong field right now, until it was all done I didn’t let myself believe it was going to be true. To walk away as champion, I can’t believe it.” 

Her second-best throw of the day was her final one, when she was able to launch it 69.21 meters, which secured the gold and sent her leaping into the arms of her coach Zebulon Sion. 

Back in Allman’s hometown of Longmont, Colo., a watch party had been organized at her alma mater, Silver Springs High School.

Her former track and field coaches and fans watched with bated breath over every one of the 29-year-old’s throws. 

Allman’s start to track and field has become a bit of an Olympic legend. 

She originally dreamed of becoming a dancer, but took up track and field at the encouragement of her older brother in her freshman year of high school.

After trying several events, she gave discus a chance because Allman wanted to take part in the annual spaghetti dinner that the throwing team had. 

But to receive an invite, she had to try any of the throwing events leading her to give discus a try. 

“It was the best spaghetti I ever had,” Allman said during a visit back to Silver Springs High in 2023, according to the Longmont Leader.
