Mary Wineberg, Olympic Gold Medalist/Author/Speaker/Educator/Entrepreneur 

Winning an Olympic gold medal in Beijing, China with the 2008 U.S. Women’s Track and Field team in the 4 x 400-meter relay was the culmination of years of extraordinary challenge, dedication and accomplishment for Mary Wineberg. That triumph opened the way for her calling as a passionate champion in education, a personal motivator and contributor to leadership development, founder of Secure Your Gold and an enthusiastic leader. Her story of overcoming tremendous hardships and long odds early in life to reach the pinnacle in her sport has connected thousands through her public speaking and community engagements. Mary has published two books, one an autobiography called “Unwavering Perseverance an Olympic Gold Medalist Finds Peace”, and her children’s book “I Didn’t Win.” Mary resides in Cincinnati, Ohio with her husband and two daughters. She hopes to continue a legacy of realizing your potential, leaving all inspired, and allowing others to Secure Your Gold!
