    Young lady, I have to tell you. Back when I was in high school, my sophomore year, I was on the track team. I tried the javelin, almost hit the coach, shot put dropped it on my foot. That hurt for a few days, discus, well, I won't go there. Didn't end well. And I tried pole vaulting. Only took one try to convince me, that I was not one to use a pole. So, I finally did the running thing. The 440, 880, and the mile. Seems the longer the distance I ran the better I got. Almost took 3rd place in a track meet. We had a few guys on the track team, who were good at pole vaulting, the triple jump and the long jump. Now, keep in mind, this was back in 1969. I was still only 15 at the time. I am amazed at how you make those jumps seemingly without fear. You can see the determination in your face. You are one hell of a role model for young women in sports. Best of luck to you.

    It’s a shame what girls-woman have to go through in order to achieve their sport’s goal. I was a photographer for an AllStar cheerleading group ages 7 to 17 mostly girls. I had to be very careful what I posted onto their website because of all the weirdo guys and men. This was a sport that comprised with many gymnastic and girls flying into the air in skimpy uniforms, but then the stupid ignorant comments started coming on and made many of these cheerleading athletes cry😕 I am so sorry this happened to this young lady but she is now solid and can look at everything she achieved including her husband and children 👍

    If you really look at the damaging and negative sides of social media, they tend to be more than the positives sometimes. I don't think it is a crime to be beautiful and passionate about a sport that she loves but like it is always, rather than seeing her dedication and hard work, they were trying to destroy her efforts and they have the social media as a platform to do that. I praise her courage and how she has held herself in the midst of all the distractions and I am very happy for her that she is happily married. I think people should just learn to encourage anyone like Stokee and not destroy them.

    I remember when I first saw that photo I thought 'Wow, she's a beautiful athlete and seriously fit...what kind of sport does she do?'
    I never heard or saw the comment when the photo went viral, and don't care to. IMO all athletic and fitness women are more attractive. I was really hoping she would qualify for the Olympics and when she didn't, I realized that her competition was probably pretty strong too! It seems modeling wasn't really her thing maybe bc they wanted to turn her into a sex symbol?
    I wonder what's next for her, especially now as a full time mom. Whatever it is, now Mrs Fowler has a beautiful family and seems quite happy, I wish them the best!!

You didn’t let them beat you and that one thing cut them off at the knees!! Unfortunately sin is pervasive in the world more now than ever before! But you overcame the obstacles it tried to defeat you with and like Job in the Bible you were sifted but not defeated!! Much love to your family!!

    So glad i watched this extremely great video. I've never heard of either as they are out of my scope. So exuberating how she turned the bad attention to good. This is a great lesson for all of us as we all go through twisted rejection at some point, and many of us for years.
    Many a great movie has been made from this type of trial
    to watch a real role out of the Cinderella marrying the Prince

    Allison Stokke was indeed an attractive young woman. It is a shame, however, that her beauty overshadowed her blossoming athletic career. It's shameful that someone didn't value her God-given talent above her looks. It shouldn't have been what defined her, and this kind of behaviour and attitude must stop. Thank God that she nevertheless managed to turn something negative into something positive.

    It's not just athletes, but women in general. And shockingly, it begins with child beauty contests, then continues with a fashion industry that insists on emphasizing women's physical assets. Women must be treated according to their character and integrity, above all else, and so should men!
