Katie Moon reacted to her picture posted by the official Twitter Account of the Glasgow World Athletics Indoor Championships ahead of the prestigious competition that is scheduled from March 1 to 3.

Katie Moon, the American pole-vaulting legend, won gold medals at the Tokyo Olympics in 2021, and in the World Athletics Championships in 2022. She also won a silver medal in the 2022 World Indoor Championships. Last year in 2023, she shared the World Athletics Championship gold medal with her fellow competitor Nina Kennedy from Australia.

Both Moon and Kennedy cleared the 4.90m pole vault, but they could not clear the ultimate jump of 4.95m during a draining competition that lasted 2 hours and 10 minutes.

After this achievement, Katie Moon is prepared to participate in the upcoming World Athletics Indoor Championship, slated to be held from March 1 to 3, 2024, in Glasgow.

Upon her arrival, the official Twitter account of the Glasgow World Athletics Championship shared a picture of Moon with her teammates and other athletes. She amusingly joked about this picture by tweeting that she was tired from the long journey and that it was wrong for asking her picture. She mentioned,

"Nothing like being told you have to take a picture immediately after long international travel you guys are so wrong for this"
