Jeshua Anderson Training Talk [INTERVIEW]

400m hurdler Jeshua Anderson is a 3 Time NCAA Champion from Washington State University. 

He is also the 2011 US Outdoor Champ where he defeated Bershawn Jackson in a close 3 way finish.  You can watch the race here on YouTube.

On our Skype call, we talked about his past Millrose performance at 500 meters, and joked about the rainy Pacific NorthWest.

We also talked about his dual sport success as he entered WSU on a football scholarship.

Finally, we talked about training, the 13 stride pattern between hurdles, and the importance of getting out hard to the first hurdle.

In terms of periodization, we looked back at the long 2011 season (NCAA indoors outdoors, US Nationals, and Daegu World Championships).  Was he disappointed with the Semi-Final performance at Worlds after such a long season?  You’ll have to watch the video to find out.
