ATHLOS makes its international debut on Friday, September 18, 2026, hosting an all-women track meet at London’s StoneX Stadium.
The sold-out, single-night event features 42 elite female athletes competing across seven core disciplines: the 100m, 200m, 400m, 800m, The Mile, 100m Hurdles, and Long Jump.
The event introduces a record single-night prize purse of US$1,057,000 distributed six deep across all disciplines, ensuring every competitor is paid:
1st Place: US$65,000 (plus a bespoke Tiffany & Co crown)
2nd Place: US$35,000
3rd Place: US$20,000
4th Place: US$15,000
5th Place: US$10,000
6th Place: US$6,000
The ATHLOS organising team adds that it remains the only professional track competition where eligible participating athletes hold direct equity ownership in the league. Competitors including Gabby Thomas and Sha’Carri Richardson serve as both athletes and athlete-owner advisers.
