Woodhall posted on this Threads account about his aim to make sports prosthetics accessible for everyone, believing running 'is a right, not a privilege'.

Woodhall wrote in the post he posted on his Threads account:

"We’re working on a prosthetic office to make running/sports prosthetics for everyone! Got a bill passed in Arkansas that forces insurance to cover secondary prosthetics, and many other states are following! Going to make running accessible for everyone! Running is a privilege, not a right!"

Although Woodhall didn't open well in the 2025 season, he is far from disappointed. The 26-year-old Paralympic champion shared a video of his practice session for a relay event on Instagram, as he wrote:

"Getting my confidence back! I was pretty disappointed after running a bad season opener. But bad races happen it doesn’t define you, so I went back to the drawing board. Came out and opened a 4x400 for the first time in my life. Ran 46.5 and I’m back where I want to be, gotta keep the pedal down!"
