Tara Davis-Woodhall made two especially memorable jumps at the 2024 Paris Games.

Tara Davis-Woodhall made two especially memorable jumps at the 2024 Paris Games.

The first came in the women’s long jump event, when, on her fourth leap, she soared 7.10 meters, good enough to secure her first Olympic gold medal.

The second came after she won the gold, when she ran over to the stands and jumped into the arms of her husband, Hunter.

“You’re the Olympic champion!” he yelled. “You did it!”

Following his wife’s first-place performance, it’s now Hunter’s turn to go for gold. He will compete in the men’s 100-meter T64 and the 400-meter T62 at the Paralympic Games, which begin Wednesday. Athletes in T61-64 events are "competing with prosthesis affected by limb deficiency and leg length difference," according to World Para Athletics.
