Harold’s son has provided the following words to describe his father’s long association with our club:-
‘Harold was a member of Herne Hll Harriers for many years. Indeed I
believe he first started running at the club in the 1930s. I remember
being taken to Tooting Bec track in the 1960s as a kid when he was
running and also when he ran as a veteran in the 1970s
‘it would be true to say that Herne Hill Harriers was in my fathers
blood and he had great affection fort the club throughout his life’
