Marc Raquil (born 2 April 1977) is a French runner of Martiniquais origin who competes in the 400 metres and 4 × 400 m relay. He won the 4 × 400 m relay gold medal and the 400 m silver medal at the 2003 World Championships. In 2004, his 4 × 400 m relay team was retroactively awarded gold medals after the United States 4 × 400 m relay team was stripped of its gold medals due to the failed drug tests of two members of the relay (Calvin Harrison and Jerome Young). Since Young had also finished first in the 400 m at the 2003 World Championships, the failed drug test also resulted in Raquil being retroactively awarded a silver medal in the 400 m. Raquil has also won three gold medals and one bronze medal at the European Indoor and Outdoor Championships.
