Alaysha Johnson (born 20 July 1996) is an American athlete who competes in the 100 metres hurdles.
A student at the University of Oregon Johnson is studying for a master's degree in sociology. At high school she was on the debate team and was named the Texas Gatorade Track & Field Girls Athlete of the Year award as a high school junior in 2013.[1]
Johnson was the runner up in the 60m hurdles at the 2022 USA Indoor Track and Field Championships behind Gabbi Cunningham. Johnson was also runner up in the 100m hurdles at the 2022 USA Outdoor Track and Field Championships, this time behind Kendra Harrison with Johnson running a personal best of 12.35 seconds.[2] That time of 12.35 placed Johnson twelfth on the all time 100 metres hurdles list, worldwide.[3] Consequent from this performance Johnson was selected for the American team to take part in the 2022 World Athletics Championships held in Eugene, Oregon.[4] Unfortunately for Johnson, the 100 metre hurdle event did not go well for her as she was one of a number of athletes to crash out and be disqualified, including her compatriot and the defending world champion, Nia Ali.[5]
She finished as runner-up in the 110m hurdles at the LA Grand Prix in May 2024.[6]
