Gloria “Glory” Alozie Oluchi (born 30 December 1977) is a former track and field athlete competing mostly in hurdling.[1] Born in Nigeria, she represented her country of birth and Spain.
The world junior second placer from 1996, she went on to have a successful senior career, although she has never won a global international event (placing second on five occasions).
