400m Hurdles World Championship Bronze Medalist Trevor Bassitt Is One Of The Best Stories In The Sport
Podcast

"One of my favorite things to say now is that Jud (Logan) was not much of a runner in his day as a hammer thrower but he runs those races with me. I did go back and look back at the race from my fiance's angle. She recorded the race and then recorded the board. They put up Rai's time and the time between me and Rai's time, it's 15 seconds – which thinking about how instantly results pop up is a really long time. I also didn't blink. I was staring at the board and I didn't want to blink because I didn't want to miss it."

Chris Chavez, Kyle Merber and John Anderson spoke with Trevor Bassitt after he earned a bronze medal in the men's 400m hurdles at the World Athletics Championships. The moment came just months after the death of Ashland University's longtime head coach Jud Logan. Bassitt has been writing his own workouts for much of the year and earned a silver medal in the 400m at the World Athletics Indoor Championships back in March. He went through the whole outdoor season unsponsored but hopefully, his story and performances will soon change that.
