She recorded a meet record and personal best in the 200m dash, posting a time of 21.89s.

With these wins, Brown bagged a total amount of $120,000 from the meet, which included $60,000 for her victory in each event. The athletes who ended up in the second and third positions of their respective events earned $25,000 and $10,000, respectively.

Tara Davis-Woodhall made her feelings known about competing at Times Square for the Athlos NYC

The Athlos NYC and its long-jump athletes made history by hosting the event at Times Square for the first time. After delivering a successful performance in the qualifying event, Tara Davis-Woodhall sat for a conversation with Citius Mag, where she opened up about her experience of competing in Times Sqaure for the first time.

Calling it a 'surreal' feeling, she said that she did not want her jump to end. Making her feelings known about this jump, she said:

“It was so surreal. That was the coolest moment. I kept thinking, did that even just happen? I was actually sad going into my last jump because I didn’t want it to end. Four jumps was really cool,it made you lock in early. This was a dream come true. I looked around and thought, they really pulled this off. It was a beautiful moment for me and for the other athletes as well," said Tara Davis-Woodhall.

The American athlete also revealed that before everything was set up, she stood in the middle of Times Square, thanking God for the opportunity.
