Monson ran away from the field in 2022, setting a new Millrose Games and Armory facility record of 8:31.62. This performance was a springboard to more success for Monson, an Olympian and NCAA champion at the University of Wisconsin. She had the best season of her career outdoors, running personal bests at 3000m, 5000m, and 10000m, competing in the World Championship final, and placing in the top five at numerous Diamond League meetings, moving up to third on the all-time U.S. 5000m list.
