[6] He finished third at the USA Outdoor Championships in 1987 and improved to the runner-up spot for a second time in 1988 at the USA Olympic Trials to claim a spot on the American team for the 1988 Summer Olympics. [4]
On Brahm's Olympic debut he reached the semi-finals of the 5000 m, but managed only fifteenth in that race. [7] Before retiring, he won two national titles: the United States 5K Run Championships in 1990 and the 3000 m at the United States Indoor Track and Field Championships in 1991. [8] [9]
