Serena Williams' husband, Alexis Ohanian, shared his excitement ahead of the second edition of Athlos, scheduled for October 10 in New York City. Ohanian replied to a comment from fellow entrepreneur Agnese Rozite.
Ohanian is the co-founder of Reddit, and married Williams in November 2017. The couple have two daughters together, Olympia and Adira. Serena and Alexis have been influential figures in promoting women's sports, investing funds in building infrastructure and creating new opportunities for female athletes.
Athlos, an all-woman track and field event, is one such endeavour started by Alexis Ohanian. It features the likes of Sha'Carri Richardson, Gabby Thomas, and Tara Davis-Woodhall as the primary athletes and the faces of the league.
The co-founder of Reddit shared an important insight while promoting his league Athlos in a recent X post. Replying to a comment, he wrote:
"LFG! Ship and talk to your customers relentlessly"
In another post on X, he looked forward to the 2025 edition of Athlos, and also promoted the team-based league format that the event will turn into in 2026.
"The Track & Field Experience levels up again on October 10th in NYC. Y'all ready for Athlos?"
Tara Davis-Woodhall and Sha'Carri Richardson are the newest additions to the athletes who will be competing in Athlos. The league will evolve into a team-based athlete-led track and field event starting from 2026.
