Tara Davis-Woodhall and Hunter Woodhall celebrated the milestone achievement of their mutual Instagram account, which crossed 700k after a year. The Woodhalls opened the account to document their journey to the 2024 Olympic Games.
Tara Davis-Woodhall, the long jumper from the US who soared to victory at the 2024 World Indoor Championships in Glasgow, won her first Olympic gold medal in her event at the Paris Games. Her husband and Paralympic athlete Hunter Woodhall also lived a similar dream, winning his debut Olympic gold in the 400m T62 at the Paris Paralympics.
Besides making waves on the track, the couple balances a social media career, offering glimpses of their training days and days out with funny skits. In a recent Instagram story, the long jumper and the sprinter celebrated the 700k follower mark on their 'The Woodhalls' page, which they started a year ago while building up to the 2024 Summer Olympics.
"We started this page one year ago to share our Olympic journey," the caption read, paired with an in-car selfie of the couple.

The couple had several off-mat experiences in 2024. They attended the GQ Men of the Year event and hit up the LAS Vegas Formula 1 Grand Prix.
Tara Davis-Woodhall once shared her husband Hunter Woodhall's big role in her journey
Having met at an Idaho track meet during their high school senior year, Tara Davis-Woodhall and Hunter Woodhall dated for years until getting engaged in September 2021 after the Tokyo Olympics. The following year, the athletic couple tied the knot on October 16, 2022.
Since then, they have been each other's support system, always accompanying each other to respective track meets. In an interview with the Self magazine published on December 30, 2024, the long jumper shared how her husband is her venting person and home therapist, helping her on days she doesn't feel her best.
"H’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," the 25-year-old said.
She further added:
"..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."
After ending the 2024 track season, the couple moved to Kansas after Davis-Woodall got the opportunity to be the assistant track coach at K-State University. The Woodhalls train under Travis Geopfert, who shifted to K-State as the Director of Track and Field/Cross Country.
