ESPN anchor Hannah Storm announced on Thursday that she is cancer-free after being diagnosed in March 2024, but said she will miss coverage of the New York City Marathon while recovering from surgery.
Storm shared the update via social media, expressing gratitude for the support she received during her treatment. She noted that she is on the mend but needs more time to recover fully before returning to on-air duties.
The veteran broadcaster has been a prominent figure in sports journalism for decades, covering major events including the Olympics and NBA Finals. Her absence from the NYC Marathon broadcast marks a rare break in her extensive career.
Colleagues and fans offered messages of encouragement following her announcement. Storm did not specify a timeline for her return to ESPN programming.
