Allister Hutton

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Allister Hutton (born 18 July 1954)[1] is a former elite long-distance runner from Scotland, who won the London Marathon in 1990. He competed in three consecutive Commonwealth Games for Scotland during his career, starting in 1978.

Running for Edinburgh Southern Harriers (now incorporated into Edinburgh AC), Hutton was Scottish National Cross-country champion in 1978 and 1982. He was third in the 1985 London Marathon, completing a British clean sweep behind Steve Jones and Charlie Spedding, and his time of 2:09:16 places him seventh on the UK all-time rankings. He was third again in 1986. Coached by Alan Storey, Hutton won the 1990 race (2:10:10), a clear thirty seconds ahead of the Italian Salvatore Bettiol.
