Welcome to Gary Hall Jr.’s official web site.

Gary Hall, Jr. is a three-time Olympian and 10-time Olympic medalist. He won his second 50m free Olympic title at the 2004 Athens Games, where at 29 he became the oldest male in 80 years to win gold for the U.S. team. In 2008 Hall was ranked fourth in the United States and sixteenth in the world in swimming's "splash and dash".

Hall was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes in 1999. At the time of his diagnosis he was told by doctors that he would never again be able to compete at the same level that saw him win four medals, including two gold, at the 1996 Olympics. Gary proved everyone wrong in a big way, winning his first individual gold by capturing the 50m free at the 2000 Olympics and doing it again in 2004.

Through his foundation and sponsors, Hall serves as a powerful advocate for diabetes awareness, education and funding. Hall makes dozens of appearances each year sharing his message of hope and perseverance in the face of adversity. He has also testified in front of Congress advocating for more funding for diabetes research.
