Gary Morgan, aka Mr. Ubiquitous, interviews all at USA Outdoor Champs! from Michigan Runner/RunningNetworkTV, photos from Victah Sailer/PhotoRun.net

GaryMorgan is an Olympian. In 1988, Gary made the 20,000m Race walk team for the Seoul Olympics. A 2:35 marathoner, Gary Morgan had a dream and just did it. Since then, Gary Morgan has traveled the world, in support of the sports, and has seen more World Championships and Olympic Games than most of us.

The truth is, most weekends, you can find Gary leading a pacing group in a marathon or half marathon somewhere in North America. Gary is the perfect guy to get you at 4 hours, 4:15, 4:30, or two hour half marathon. He just is a metronome.

Gary Morgan loves the sport. Who else would announce a 20k race walk on Sunday June 23, delayed three hours and keep the crowd entertained? 

Gary and I do the ” Gary and Larry Show” sometimes, and it is fun. But over the past couple of years, Gary has done some tremendous coverage and interviews with some of the best athletes in our sport.

Here are 28 videos for you to enjoy! 

Mr. Ubiquitous, Gary Morgan, lived up to (maybe beyond) his nickname at the USA Outdoor Track & Field Championships in Des Moines last month.  He tracked down Olympians, brand new champions and future stars for interviews. Many will be named to Team USA for the IAAF World Championships in Athletics. Running Network video editor, Art McCafferty gave up sleep to create the videos with Victah Sailer’s photos. The first twenty-eight follow; more to come:
