Calvin Harrison

Calvin Harrison is an American sprinter born on January 20, 1974, in Orlando, Florida. Standing 186 cm and weighing 75 kg, he won Olympic gold in the 4x400 metres relay at the 2000 Sydney Games alongside his identical twin brother Alvin.

At the 2000 Olympics, Calvin and Alvin Harrison made history as the first twins to win Olympic gold together on the same relay team. In high school at North Salinas High School in California, Calvin set the national high school record in the 400 metres at 45.25 seconds, a mark that stood until 2012. He was named Track and Field News High School Athlete of the Year in 1993.

The 2000 relay team was later stripped of their medals after teammate Antonio Pettigrew admitted using performance-enhancing drugs. Calvin also received a two-year suspension for a modafinil violation in 2003. He co-authored the book "Go to Your Destiny," which debuted on The Oprah Winfrey Show in 2001.
