A day after earning a silver medal in the heptathlon at the 2023 World Athletics Championships, Chris Chavez had the pleasure of speaking with Anna Hall and Jackie Joyner-Kersee (the world record holder in the heptathlon and two-time Olympic gold medalist in the multis).
Hall became just the second American woman to win two World Championship medals in the heptathlon. Jackie Joyner-Kersee won gold in 1987 and 1993. Joyner-Kersee’s heptathlon world record total of 7,291 still stands but Hall could be the one to break it in the years to come.
