    World Athletics Gold Label Road: American discus thrower Valarie Allman, who won gold medals at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics (held in 2021) and the 2024 Paris Olympics, has been named the international event ambassador for the Half Marathon, scheduled for October 20.

    Allman’s remarkable throw of 69.50 metres in Paris set a new American record, further cementing her status as one of the top discus throwers globally. Her Olympic journey began with a gold medal at the Tokyo 2020 Games, achieved with a powerful first throw of 68.98 metres.

    "The beautiful aspect of a running event is its ability to bring us together as a community and make it our own for the larger good. The start line is not just a race; it's a celebration of camaraderie, determination, resilience, and a showcase of our ability to push limits and achieve new personal milestones. I am delighted that my visit to India is for the Vedanta Delhi Half Marathon and to be a part of something that brings out the vibrant colors of India, #AaRangDeDilli, I like the sound of that," Allman said in a release issued by the organisers.
