This is exciting — and honestly, this is exactly the kind of athlete-led initiative that strengthens a sport from the inside out. We’re proud to share that two of our USAPM athletes, Cass Steptoe and Dani Martin, have launched a new podcast: Modern Pentathlon Press — a show dedicated entirely to the world of pentathlon. The podcast covers event recaps, rule changes, historical perspectives, athlete interviews, and thoughtful discussions about where our sport is headed. It’s an authentic, athlete-driven voice that adds depth and energy to the modern pentathlon community. One of the most powerful things we can do as a community is support initiatives that grow awareness and tell our story. Pentathlon is a complex, evolving sport — especially as we move into the LA28 era — and platforms like this help educate fans, engage new audiences, and celebrate the athletes who make it all happen. Whether you're a youth athlete, parent, coach, official, or supporter, this podcast is a great way to stay informed and connected. We encourage all of our members to give Modern Pentathlon Press a listen, subscribe, and follow along. Share it with teammates and friends, and help amplify their work. Athlete-led storytelling strengthens our culture — and culture drives performance. Let’s support them and continue building momentum for our sport together. Congrats Cass and Dani!

Steven Wimmer 15 (North Carolina) and Neallie Gillis-Pade 16 (California) represented the USA at the Youth Pan American Modern Pentathlon Championships in Santa Cruz Bolivia this past weekend. They participated in the U17 individual events and the mixed relay. Conditions were tough with 95 degrees, strong sun, and high humidity but what a great learning experience for these two young athletes to meet and compete with athletes from Bolivia, Guatemala, Colombia, Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay, Canada, Panama, Ecuador, and Peru. Key highlights included Steven having the 3rd fastest obstacle time in the U17 boys event and Neallie was the top female fencer in the mixed relay event winning 16 of 18 bouts. We look forward to what's next for Neallie while cheering for Steven as he competes in the USAPM National Championships this weekend.
