His portfolio of accomplishments includes multiple silver medals in the men's long jump events across five Paralympics from 2004 to 2020. Notably, Gillette clinched a gold medal in the 2019 World Para Athletics Championships in Dubai. He also set a world record for F11 classified athletes in the long jump with a leap of 6.77 meters in 2015. Gillette's athletic prowess extends beyond the track and field, with his introduction to beep ball in high school leading to multiple World Series titles with the West Coast Dawgs.
Off the field, Gillette has pursued music, releasing a music single titled "On the Stage." His contributions and achievements have been recognized in his home state, with "Lex Gillette Day" celebrated on September 25 in Hagerstown, Maryland, and Washington County, MD. In 2015, he was bestowed with the Athletes in Excellence Award from The Foundation for Global Sports Development. In addition to his athletic and musical pursuits, Gillette has emerged as a respected public speaker and advocate, particularly for athletes with disabilities.
Gillette's successes extend across numerous national and international competitions, including gold medals in long jump at the U.S. Paralympics Track and Field National Championships across multiple years. He also secured gold medals at the IPC Athletics World Championships, including events in Lyon, France, and Dubai, United Arab Emirates. His written work, "FLY!" and "No Need For Sight When You Have A Vision," reflects his motivational speaking topics, including visionary leadership, diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), and resilience. Currently, Gillette has set his sights on the upcoming LA 2028 Paralympic Games, signifying his enduring commitment to transcending boundaries in sport.
