Max Edwin Truex (b. November 4, 1935 Warsaw, Indiana, d. March 24, 1991 Milton, Massachusetts) was an American long distance runner. He was a two-time Olympian, running the 10,000 metres at the 1956 and 1960 Olympics. He also was a two-time United States champion in the 6 mile run, the imperial equivalent and added a 3 mile championship in 1962 (though he actually finished second to New Zealander Murray Halberg). The diminutive 5' 5" Truex was called a seemingly tireless running machine.
