Allman threw the longest discus in 35 years

American Valarie Allman achieved the longest discus throw since 1989, making her the fifth-best performer in history. Allman's throw of 73.52 meters occurred Saturday at the Oklahoma Throws Series in Ramona, USA, setting a personal best. This performance also makes her the eighth-best throw of all time. The event in Ramona, Oklahoma, saw another record-breaking discus throw, following Yaime Pérez's 2024 performance. Allman, a two-time Olympic champion, is now a strong contender for the world title.
