Dodge attended OAC in the early 1920s. He participated in the 1924 Olympics, where he finished 6th in the men's 800 metres, and the 1925 Pan American Games. He also ran for the Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club.
Story led the OSU cross-country team to the 1961 NCAA championship – OSU’s first team national championship. He was also the individual medalist, defeating six future Olympians while running barefoot (his trademark style) in subfreezing conditions. Story also ran track as a long distance runner, and earned All-American honors in Spring 1962 in the three-mile run. This photo appeared in the April 1962 Oregon Stater.
