Having met at a track meet in 2017, Tara Davis-Woodhall and Hunter Woodhall pulled off a long-distance relationship before tying the nuptial knot in 2022. Since then, they have been inseparable, traveling, training and even running joint social media accounts. In an interview with Self, Tara talked about her husband's role in her life and how he makes everything better.
"He’s my venting person—whatever I gotta say, he gets to hear it. He’s like my in-home therapist when I can’t talk to my actual therapist. He just makes everything better. Even going to these events, I could not imagine going to them alone," she said.
"It’s like, we get to experience this whole new world together, going from when we were little babies, doing long-distance and trying to make it work, to then doing all these cool things and living so many of our talked-about dreams. We really do lean on each other mentally. If I’m not good, he’s good, and he’s going to try to help me get good, and vice versa," she added.
Notably, Davis-Woodhall was a part of Team USA at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics but finished sixth in the long jump.
