Ep. 68 - Experiencing God On and Off The Track - with Christina Chenault

Today's guest is Christina Chenault, UCLA Track and Field
heptathlete! We get to hear her whole story, how she came
to faith in college, how she experiences God on the
track, and we even talk about life purpose.


 


Christina is a redshirt senior and captain on the UCLA
Track and Field team. Academically, she majored in
Psychology and minored in African-American studies. She
officially completed her degree in Winter term 2020, with
honor roll standing all four years. Athletically, she is
on the Top 10 All-Time list at UCLA in the Heptathlon and
Pentathlon. She placed 3rd at the 2019 Pac-12
Championships meet in the Heptathlon, earning a spot to
represent the Bruins at the 2019 National Championship
Meet.


 


In addition to her athletic accolades, she serves as a
student-athlete leader and activist on campus. For
example, her sophomore year she co-founded a sports media
platform: Top Five Media, to share the uncovered stories
of athletes and create a supportive athletic community.
This pushed her to value being “more than an athlete” as
she then interned with Under Armor and Nike’s marketing
teams in the subsequent summers after her sophomore and
junior years. To further help student-athletes prepare
for their life after sports, Christina also created and
became the President of UCLA’s Bruin Sports Business
Association. All of her efforts were aimed at creating
unity, social change, and equity through the world of
sport. She hopes to leave a legacy that teaches others
how they can have an impact much larger than themselves.
