Charles Douglas "Doug" Brown (born March 1, 1952 in Detroit, Michigan) is a retired American track and field athlete, whose specialty was the Steeplechase. He competed for the United States in two Olympic Games, running the steeplechase at the 1972 and 1976 Olympics.〔http://www.sports-reference.com/olympics/athletes/br/doug-brown-1.html〕 He was a surprise second place at the 1972 Olympic Trials, sprinting from a battle to make the team around leading contender, hometown favorite Steve Savage who had been battling Mike Manley for the lead. In 1976, with 1972 winner Manley injured hitting a barrier in the first few laps of the race, Brown outsprinted Henry Marsh and picked up the win by .03 of a second. That wasn't even the most thrilling finish in that race, as Mike Roche fell over the last barrier, managed to right himself and outsprint Don Timm for the final position on the team. Brown also made a third Olympic team in 1980, but that was just a status symbol as President Jimmy Carter had already announced the United States would boycott the Olympics.〔https://www.usatf.org/statistics/champions/OlympicTrials/HistoryOfTheOlympicTrials.pdf〕 He also ran on the American silver medal winning team at the 1983 IAAF World Cross Country Championships. While competing for the University of Tennessee he won the NCAA Championship in the steeplechase twice in a row, which qualified him to run in the 1973 World University Games. After college he ran with the Athletics West track club, one of the first mega teams sponsored by Nike. He was United States (Amateur Athletic Union) National Champion in 1973 and 1980.〔http://www.usatf.org/statistics/USA-Champions/USAOutdoorTF/men/3000mSC.aspx〕 ==References==
