It Was Love at First Sight When Track Athletes Tara Davis and Hunter Woodhall Met at Age 16

The track event ended in a hug and small talk, but Tara made sure the spark didn't fizzle out. She slid into Hunter's Twitter DMs, and started a flirty chat. When their banter kicked off, Tara realised, "Oh this guy has some moves!" Social messages turned into trading phone numbers, and "a few months down the road" their relationship started picking up speed.

After months of chatting long-distance and occasional meet-ups, the couple officially went on their first date in June 2017. Tara drove two hours to where Hunter was training in Southern California, and the visit set the scene for their first kiss.

The moral of the story for Tara and Hunter? Don't be afraid to make the first move. Tara's willingness to put herself out there resulted in a love story for the ages. We can't wait to see more of Tara and Hunter in Tokyo soon.
