Patrick McDonough (born July 22, 1961) is a retired track cyclist from the United States. He represented his native country of the United States at the 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles, California, where he won the silver medal in the men's 4.000m team pursuit, alongside Steve Hegg, Leonard Nitz, David Grylls and Brent Emery.^[1]

McDonough later admitted to "blood doping" at the 1984 Games. This was not illegal at the time, and one-third of the U.S. cycling team had received blood transfusions before the games.^[2]

In recent years Patrick has helped run the Olympic Training Center Velodrome and the Boulder Valley Velodrome.^{[citation needed]}
