"It was honestly a great experience. This is my first year not being sponsored so I felt like I had a chip on my shoulder this whole season just trying to prove that I am deserving of something...It was nice to see all of my hard work paying off and do something I've never done before and something that hasn't been done in the U.S. in a couple of years."
One of the best stories to come out of the 2022 World Indoor Track and Field Championships in Belgrade, Serbia was Team USA's Mikiah Brisco coming away with a silver medal in the women's 60m in 6.99 seconds. That is the fastest time by an American woman since Gail Devers in 1999.
Switzerland’s Mujinga Kambundji won gold in 6.96 to move into No. 4 on the all-time list. Brisco's Team USA teammate Marybeth Sant-Price took bronze in 7.04.
In the first "Out of The Blocks" conversation with Jasmine Todd, Mikiah sat down to talk about her time in Serbia and how she's looking to keep the momentum going into the outdoor season ahead of the U.S. Championships and World Athletics Championships in Eugene, Oregon this summer.
