Mark Everett (born September 2, 1968 in Milton, Florida) was an American 800 metres runner who won the bronze medal at the 1991 World Championships in Tokyo. The following year Everett finished second in the US Olympic Trials in New Orleans behind Johnny Gray. A few weeks later Everett beat Gray at the Bislett Games in Oslo, setting a new personal best of 1:43.40. Everett and Gray went to Barcelona as favourites for the gold and silver medals. However, Everett did not finish the race and Gray won the bronze behind William Tanui and Nixon Kiprotich. He attended the University of Florida.
One of his last achievements was a 4x400m relay gold medal at the 1997 IAAF World Indoor Championships.
Everett is the former head coach of track and field at Birmingham-Southern College in Birmingham, Alabama.
