A transgender athlete who competed as a man before winning the NCAA women’s national championship is vowing to return to indoor track competition and ‘take all the records’.

CeCe Telfer became the first openly trans woman to win an NCAA title when she placed first in the 400m hurdles at the Division II National Championships in 2019.

But Telfer suggests she is now planning an imminent return to competition in which she plans to blast away her fellow sprinters.

‘I look forward to indoor track, because 2024 indoors is going to be epic,’ Telfer said in an interview with Them. 

‘My dreams were taken away from me once again. So I plan on going back to New England, hitting up all the indoor competitions, and taking all the names, all the records, and everything.’
