Cynthia "Cyndy" Poor (born May 18, 1953 in Hanover, New Hampshire) is a retired American track and field athlete, known primarily for her success in middle distance races. A 1971 graduate of Saratoga High School before California high schools had sports for girls (before Title IX) she ran with the San Jose Cindergals, an early powerhouse girl's track team under coach Augie Argabright. The team was dominated by distance runners, most notably Francie Larrieu, just one year Poor's senior. Starting off as a sprinter, she was gradually coaxed into running longer distances, while her sprinter's speed at the finish frequently served her well. Her 1973 400 metres time is still ranked in the top ten times at the University of California, Davis.
