On, Swiss high-performance running brand, announced the signing of University of Kentucky standout Chloe Abbott to its roster of track and field athletes. The NCAA runner-up in 2019's 400 meters (400 PB of 50.98) has set her sights on representing On and Team USA at Tokyo’s Olympic Games. 

“We’re thrilled to partner with Abbott as she embarks on her professional running career,” said On Global Sports Marketing Manager, Steve DeKoker, “She brings speed, drive and an incredible energy to our team of elite athletes. Not only are we impressed with her abilities on the track, but we are excited to support her in her career ambitions off the track as well.” 

There’s no slowing down for Abbott off the track. A four-time first team All-American, B1G Champion and Michigan 400 meters state record holder, the 22-year-old multifaceted athlete is also chasing her dreams in the music and acting industry, bringing her purpose-driven character to singing and songwriting as 'Chloe B’. 

“I chose On because their team sees me as more than an athlete. My whole life, I've always had to choose between running and my music and acting career. Over time, I learned that I can’t have one without the other,” said Abbott of her choice to partner with the Swiss running brand. “My first conversation with On was a breath of fresh air. I connected with a brand that has a similar vision and wants what I want for myself and professional athletes all over the world: a chance to compete at high levels while also having a team that supports me in what I love off the track."
