Andrew Bayer works his way up late to take 7th in the 3k at 2013 NCAA Indoor Track and Field Championships

Last spring Andy Bayer broke through as NCAA Champ outdoors in the 1500 against a strong field. It wasn't a fluke. Bayer went on to finish 4th at the Olympic Trials and surprised many. It looked as though Bayer was reaching new levels...until the fall. Bayer suffered a stress fracture and had a late start to training for indoors. After a few slow openers, Bayer eventually ran a solid 7:51 3k, but come nationals wasn't in the hunt for a title. Bayer talks about the frustration of set backs after having the best spring of his career and where he will go from here.
