Makenzie Dunmore (born 7 October 1997) is an American sprinter. Running for the Oregon Ducks and South Carolina Gamecocks, she won two NCAA Division I championship titles in relays and finished 6th individually at the 2023 USA Outdoor Track and Field Championships over 400 metres.

Career[edit]

Dunmore began competing at the AAU Junior Olympics as early as 2010, winning a U19 title over 400 m in 2015.[1] At McEachern High School, she was the 2014 Georgia High School Association 400 m state champion.[3]

As a member of the Oregon Ducks track and field team, Dunmore won NCAA relay titles at the 2017 outdoor 4 × 400 m and the 2019 indoor distance medley.[3]

After a two-year hiatus, Dunmore transferred to the South Carolina Gamecocks track and field as a graduate student. She then achieved her best individual 400 m showing of 9th at the 2022 NCAA Division I Outdoor Track and Field Championships.[1]

At the 2023 USA Outdoor Track and Field Championships, Dunmore finished 6th in the 400 m, qualifying her for the relay pool to represent the U.S. at the 2023 World Athletics Championships.[4] However, she ultimately was not selected to run the heats or finals of the 4 × 400 m.[1]

Personal life[edit]

Dunmore is from Powder Springs, Georgia where she attended McEachern High School.[2]

Dunmore was a member of the Oregon Ducks track and field team from 2017 to 2018, but she left Oregon after finishing her undergraduate degree and giving birth to her son.[5]
