FAYETTEVILLE — Kemoy Campbell, a former University of Arkansas All-American distance runner who collapsed last Saturday after taking himself off the track during a race at the Millrose Games, is awake and in stable condition, according to a statement released by his family on Tuesday.
Campbell, who competed in the 2016 Olympics and the 2017 World Championships in the 5,000 meters for his native Jamaica, is being treated at New York Presbyterian/ Columbia University Hospital.
“Kemoy will continue to be monitored and recover at the hospital for the foreseeable time,” the family statement said.
Campbell, 28, collapsed while running as a pace-setter for the 3,000 meters.
