Abdul Baser Wasiqi

Abdul Baser Wasiqi is an Afghan athlete.

Wasiqi represented Afghanistan at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta. He injured his leg (hamstring muscle) before the marathon, but took part nonetheless. He completed the race despite his injury, after limping the whole way, with a time of 4:24:17, well short of his personal best of two hours and thirty-three minutes. He finished 111th and last, nearly an hour and a half behind the second-slowest competitor. Wasiqi reached the stadium and found "workmen [...] preparing the arena for the closing ceremony" and "tarpaulin being laid across the running track". Preparations were suspended long enough for Baser to reach the finish line.

Wasiqi was the only Afghan competitor at the 1996 Games.
