Brittney Reese, Long Jumper

There probably isn’t another athlete who knows the Olympics better than long jumper Brittney Reese.

Why? - because she’s been to the Olympics four times! Reese is a 7-time world champion and 8-time medalist. But, as you’ll come to find out, her accolades are just one chapter to her story. We sat down with Reese at the Elite Athlete Training Center in Chula Vista where she shared how she balances being a single-mom with her Olympic obligations. On top of it all, you’ll hear how she stays driven and committed to her craft.
