Christopher ("Chris") Lloyd Maddocks (born 28 March 1957) is a male retired race walker from Great Britain.

In his final competitive race, the 50 km walk at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, Australia, he overcame a hamstring injury to finish in last place.

[9] He had set an Olympic qualifying time of 3 hours 57 minutes and 10 seconds when winning the Dutch 50 km championship race in March 2000.

[1] Prior to the games he was refused National Lottery funding and he could not find a shoe sponsor, although ASICS sent him a complimentary pair.

He entered the Stadium Australia as I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles) by The Proclaimers was played over the loudspeakers in his honour, and as the 100,000 crowd cheered him on to finish.

[10] In April 2002, two months after he started studying journalism at University of Leeds, Maddocks announced his retirement from professional athletics.

"Money Walks" was published to coincide with the 2012 Olympics, at which time Chris was a specialist TV sports commentator for NBC.
