The Bowerman Track Club (BTC) is an American training group sponsored by Nike, Inc. It previously featured a professional team last coached by Jerry Schumacher and assistants Shalane Flanagan, Chris Solinsky, and Alex Ostberg.[2] The non-professional elite team is coached by Elliott Heath.[3] The club is named after Nike co-founder Bill Bowerman.
The team moved from Portland to Eugene in 2022.[4] Gabriela DeBues-Stafford left the club in 2022, citing lack of clarity around Shelby Houlihan's continued relationship with the team following Houlihan's doping ban and Schumacher's opposition to AIU and WADA.[5][6]
The professional team was disbanded in February 2025 after 12 years and reportedly producing 10 Olympic and World Championship medalists.[7]
