Tuesday Club Run Co-ordinator - George Burdett

George's Running Story

George is something of a late bloomer, having only took up running in his late 40s. He's gone from strength to strength since joining Barrow Runners in 2023, consistently improving his times at all distances from 5k to marathon and picking up a few trophies along the way. He harbours hopes of competing in the Abbott World Majors and is daring to dream of a sub 3 hour marathon one day. Just don't expect to see him at a cross country race any time soon... (mud doesn't seem to agree with his carefully colour-coordinated running gear!)

You will, however, find him at track sessions on Thursdays and leading the 7:30 minute mile pace group on Tuesdays.

George's Role

George will be helping coordinate Tuesday nights as our membership continues to expand, liaising with other group leaders and adding his voice and experience to committee matters.

George is also one of the editors of our weekly Rundown newsletter and takes great pleasure in celebrating everyone's successes in long-winded prose, often littered with bad jokes.
