In the 1000 m contest Campbell was obstructed by the Briton Nicky Gooch, who was disqualified.
He had miscounted and left the track one lap short of the finish line, and was classified as a non-finisher.

Four years later he won the gold medal with the Canadian team in the 5000 metre relay competition.
