My name is Danny Mackey, I'm orginally from the south subs of Chicago. I went to undergrad at Eastern Illinois University. I studied Business Ed. and Biology. At EIU I ran XC and Track but I was injuried or sick 90% of my career there, I actually was granted a 6th year from the NCAA, but I was injured that year. Next I went to Colorado State University for grad school and studied Exercise Physiology with research focused on endurance performance and biomechanics. After CSU I taught anatomy and physiology at Parkland College in Illinois. Now I work as a Field Analyst in Nike Sports Research Lab up in Portland Oregon.
High School PR's: 800-1:57, 1600-4:29, 3200-9:47, 3mile XC-14:46. AND more importantly never missed one practice in 4 years.
College PR's all from my first year or two after that I was in a training room or timing splits for 4 years. 800-1:55.9, 1500-3:55.8, 8k-25:27
Post Collegiate as of now. Mile-4:12, 5k (indoors)-14:46, 8k XC 24:50, Marathon: 2:21:38.
My goals are to drop all of these times.
