Emma Coburn
She’s the greatest American female in the history of her industry, but you probably never even heard of her. Why? The field and track world isn’t on the average public’s radar, and the steeplechase event is the last thing they would look into if they weren’t ardent fans.

Coburn holds an American record in the 3000-meter steeplechase. Amazingly, she was the first American woman ever to land a medal in the event when she scored a bronze at the Olympics of 2016 and a gold at the 2019 World Championships.
