Guest Speaker

Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone 

 The youngest U.S. Olympian to compete in track and field since 1972, Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone set a junior world record in the 400m hurdles at the 2016 U.S. Olympic Team Trials. She also won the silver medal at the 2019 World Championships in the 400m hurdles, and is the current NCAA record-holder in the 400m hurdles. She broke her own World Record in the women's 400-meter hurdles to win the gold in the 2021 Tokyo Olympics. Named the Gatorade National Girls Athlete of the Year, two years in a row, McLaughlin gave a moving—and headline-making—speech about how she overcame obstacles to become one of the top young track and field athletes in America. Having left the University of Kentucky to pursue a professional career, McLaughlin-Levrone is also a face of New Balance. 

Known for one of her personal mottos, "the only limit is myself," McLaughlin-Levrone offers empowering and inspiring remarks on overcoming every obstacle, perseverance, learning and evolving from your mistakes, staying open to new experiences, and the pursuit of success.

  • The 2026 Vision Summit begins Thursday evening, March 5th and ends with Sunday morning, March 8th by 11AM.  

  • The 2026 Vision Summit will be held at the Lodge at Torrey Pines in La Jolla, California.

     

    The street address is 11480 North Torrey Pines Road, La Jolla, California 92037

  • Our weekend together begins Thursday evening with registration and a welcome dinner. We’ll have morning and evening meals together, devotions, worship, exclusive tours and programs featuring InterVarsity’s leadership team and special speakers and guests. Afternoons are yours to relax, explore the beautiful resorts and the San Diego area. Our program ends Sunday morning. 

  • As our guests, your lodging and meals are generously underwritten by a Host Committee of InterVarsity supporters who have made our Vision Summit weekend possible. You need to provide only for your round-trip transportation and personal expenses.

  • The Lodge at Torrey Pines is located just a short 20-minute drive from the San Diego International Airport (SAN), offering visitors an easy and convenient commute. Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) is also available as a travel choice and is only 90 minutes north.

    Visit SAN airport website – 20 min from The Lodge at Torrey Pines

    Visit LAX airport website – 90 min from The Lodge at Torrey Pines

  • San Diego has wonderful weather year-round.  Early March is typically very comfortable with daytime highs between low 50s and mid 70s, perfect for spending time outdoors. It can be cooler after the sun goes down, so you may wish to bring a sweater or jacket. Attire throughout the weekend will be resort casual with the evenings a little dressier.

  • We have designed this weekend to feed you physically, emotionally and

    spiritually. It is our request that you spend this weekend focused on the special

    event we have designed for you.
