WWE host Megan Morant announced that she has qualified for the Olympic trials.
Morant, an accomplished runner, wrote that while watching the Olympic Trials Marathon in 2020 and seeing a record number of women qualify, she wondered what if she tried to do it herself.
“I was a has-been. My successful high school running career led to a D1 college scholarship, but in college, things never really panned out,” Morant wrote. “Deep down inside, I knew I still had untapped potential in running, but I often thought: who cares? What’s the point?”
She said over the past several years, she has concentrated on her career but now believes that you can have a career and also be a high-level athlete at the same time.
“Easy? No. Doable? If you want it to be: Why not? I was inspired. I got curious. I wanted to be there. I went to work. Over 6 years later, my dream is now a reality. With the greatest support system in the world by my side, I just qualified for the Olympic Trials (how is this even real?!),” she continued.
The 31-year-old co-hosts the WWE Now Raw Recap podcast for WWE and is also a backstage correspondent.
