Chris Chavez and Kyle Merber speak with Cole Hocker after he finished 7th in a personal best of 3:30.70 at the 2023 World Athletics Championships 1500m final. Hocker discusses what he learned from another fast global championship final and the experience he’s taking into 2024. This year was not without its own set of hardships for Hocker as he missed the first four months of the year due to Achilles injuries but worked his way back to finish second at the U.S. Outdoor Championships.
