Record-breaking American athlete who specialized in the 800m race who won bronze in the 1992 Olympic Games.Also, he is a renowned track coach who led Khadevis Robinson in five National Championships.

After competing in six Olympic Trials (1980-2000) he turned to coaching. His foremost protege’ was SMTC teammate Khadevis Robinson, who Gray coached to 5 National Championships. Robinson might best be remembered as the odd man out in the famous “Oregon sweep” at the 2008 Olympic Trials. That might be the second closest Olympic Trials race, to Gray’s own 1984 trials, when Gray finished second, but was given the same (American record) time as Earl Jones, and James Robinson was the odd man out with the same time as 3rd place John Marshall.
Having led the Olympic 800 m race at the 1992 Summer Olympics with a blazing first lap at better than world record pace, Gray was passed twice during the final lap to claim the bronze medal. A reporter later asked him what he would have done differently if he could run the race a second time, and it is rumored that he responded, “I would have taken it out harder.” Runners refer to such an attitude as “taking it to the Gray zone” in his honor. This tactic also resulted in some devastating failures as in the 1987 and 1993 World Championships when he jogged to the finish of quarterfinal races, depleted and defeated. He walked to the finish of the 1980 Olympic Trials.
He was married to Judy Kathryn Terrell and had three sons who were named Johnny, Jared and Jaylon.
