Katie Miale qualifies for Olympic Trials!

She’s been chasing this goal for years. And on Sunday, Marist racewalker Katie Miale achieved it! Katie will be joining her teammates and good friends Lauren Harris and Kayla Shapiro at the United States Olympic Trials 20km racewalk. On Sunday at the USATF championships on Hauppauge, Long Island, Katie finished in 1:46:17, easily finishing under the qualifying standard of 1:48:00. Lauren and Kayla were there to help her along the way, along with Coach Chuck Williams, who has elevated himself as a fixture and known coaching authority in the USA racewalking community. Having three Olympic Trials qualifiers wearing the same uniform will do that. Very, very neat! Congratulations, Katie!
