George Henry Goulding (19 November 1884 – 31 January 1966) was a Canadianathlete who competed mainly in the 10 kilometre walk.[1]
He competed in three events at the 1908 Olympic Games in London: the 3500 metre walking race, in which he came fourth; the 10 mile walk, which he failed to finish; and the Marathon, in which he came 22nd out of 55 starters and 27 finishers. The two walking distances were discontinued after London.
* From 1906 to 1979, events were conducted by the Amateur Athletic Union. Events from 1980 to 1992 were conducted under The Athletics Congress. Events thereafter were conducted by USA Track & Field.
Distances have varied as follows: Mile walk all years except 1933-1939 when 1500 m walk was contested, 2 miles walk until 1986 (3000 m walk since except for odd years since 2015), 3 miles walk until 1911 (5000 m walk since).
