Cody Miller (born January 9, 1992) is an American competitive swimmer who specializes in the breaststroke. At the 2016 Summer Olympics, Miller won a bronze medal in the men's 100 metre breaststroke and a gold medal in the men's 4 × 100 metre medley relay, in which he performed the breaststroke leg of the final.
Miller has won a total of five medals in major international competitions: two golds, one silver, and two bronzes, spanning the long and short courses.
Career
Miller rose to prominence in the world swimming scene at the 2014 Short Course World Championships in Doha, Qatar, where he took home a pair of medals, a silver in the men's 4×100 m medley relay (3:21.49) and a bronze in the 4×50 m medley relay (an American-record time of 1:31.83).[1][2]
At the 2015 World Aquatics Championships in Kazan, Russia, Miller claimed his first gold medal as part of the U.S. team in the 4×100 m medley relay. Swimming the breaststroke leg, Miller recorded a split of 59.23 seconds in the prelims to put the Americans at the top of the final field with a time of 3:31.06.[3][4] Miller also competed in the 100 m breaststroke, but failed to advance to the final, finishing in ninth at 59.86 seconds.[5]
Miller placed second at the 2016 United States Olympic Trials, behind Kevin Cordes.[6]
At the 2016 Summer Olympics, Miller won a bronze medal in the men's 100 metre breaststroke, setting the American record for the men's 100 metre breaststroke with a time of 58.87 seconds.[7][8] Miller also won a gold medal in the men's 4 × 100 metre medley relay, in which he performed the breaststroke leg of the final.
Personal life
Cody Miller was born January 9, 1992 in Billings, Montana.[9] He attended Palo Verde High School in Las Vegas, Nevada.[9] Miller then swam at Indiana University under head coach Ray Looze.[10] When Miller qualified for the U.S. Olympic team in 2016, he was the first swimmer from Indiana University to make the U.S. Olympic team in 40 years.[11]
Miller has pectus excavatum, a deformity of the thoracic wall which causes the chest to cave in due to the sternum and rib cage growing abnormally.[12] In Miller's particular case, his deformity is severe enough to cause limitations to his lung capacity.[13][14] As a result of having the deformity, he started swimming at age eight "to monitor [his] heart and breathing".[9] Miller opted not to have surgery to correct the deformity, and swimming helped broaden his chest and develop his rib cage.[11]
Miller has a younger sister, Catie, who swims for Duke University and is also a breaststroke/IM swimmer.[9] Cody Miller became engaged to Ali DeWitt on November 22, 2015 at the Golden Goggle Awards.[15]
Miller is a self professed film-buff.[16]
