#186: Rich Benoy-VS Athletics

There is a vast stratum of individuals responsible for making the track and field world spin. The most obvious are the coaches we feature on a weekly basis, less obvious are track surfacers, track reporters, and today's guest owners of equipment companies. Join us as we welcome the owner of VS Athletics Rich Benoy to the podcast. VS Athletics is an excellent dealer of Gill Athletics equipment representing our equipment from PV/HJ pits, hurdles, implements and more. Rich's history in track and field runs deep as does his passion for the sport. We discuss VS hosting the California Indoor State Meet series, Rich's work with ESPN on track coverage, and get a special look into his relationship with his dad that spurred on his professional hurdle career.

Check out VS Athletics on their WEBSITE or reach out by phone at 800-676-7463.
