Lauren’s Lane to LA: Featured on Fox 5 San Diego

I had the opportunity to be featured on Fox 5 San Diego as part of their Neighborhood All-Stars series—sharing the story behind my campaign to qualify for the 2028 Olympic Games.

This segment captures a different side of Second Wind Racing—not just the results, but the reality of what it takes to pursue elite sport at this stage of life.

Highlights from the feature:

• The goal: earning the sole U.S. women’s ILCA 6 spot for LA 2028

• Returning to elite competition at 41 after nearly two decades away

• Training, racing, and building this campaign while raising two kids

• The support system behind the scenes—family, community, and sponsors

What makes television coverage like this so impactful is the reach. It brings this story beyond the sailing world and into the broader community—people who may not know the sport, but understand what it means to chase something that matters.

Because this isn’t just about making it to the start line in 2028.

It’s about showing that ambition doesn’t expire—and that going after something big can happen at any stage of life.
