Jasmine Todd and Katelyn Hutchison sit down with Tori Franklin after winning a bronze medal in the women’s triple jump at the 2022 World Athletics Championships Oregon22. Tori is a Michigan State alum and Chicago, Ill. native. She has competed at three World Outdoor Championships, one World Indoor Championship and the 2021 Olympics. In this episode, she discusses the major life and career changes that she made and overcame to catapult herself from a 9th place finish in Doha to the first American woman to medal in the triple jump in World Championship history. Katelyn and Tori geek out about their shared roots from Chicago. There’s plenty of advice for young and rising athletes packed into this one.
