As a gateway to the World Athletics Indoor Championships, the ongoing USATF Indoor Championships is serving a peak delight to its spectators. Track stars Noah Lyles and Christian Coleman have pitched up to defend their titles and take another step toward success. But among the top names, shined the name of Brian Faust, the 25-year-old who just secured his 400m win, clocking in at 45.47.
However, today’s 400m isn’t his only win of 2024, as his achievement of the world-leading time in 300m came on 13th January. In the 2024 Clemson Invitational, Faust sprinted toward the finish line by clocking an impressive 32.36 seconds.
Originally taken from NBC Olympics and Paralympics, the X post of track and field correspondent, Chris Chavez reads, “Garden State Track Club’s Brian Faust comes from behind to win the U.S. 400m indoor title in a personal best of 45.47 Never made a U.S. 400m final before today”.
