Enid Johnstone

Enid competed for the club in the 1960’s as a young athlete. When her own daughter took part in athletics in the 1990’s, she was drawn back to the club as an assistant coach to Elsie Morris and Johnny Robertson whilst still running herself.

Since then, she has gradually built up a formidable group of girls competing in middle distance and cross country from U13 to U20. Many girls have spent their formative years under Enid’s guidance, making lifelong friends along the way. Enid manages a series of sessions at the track on Tuesdays and Thursdays with a number of coaching assistants. In the winter, her squads can be found on the hills in the Queen’s Park and at Meadowbank in the summer.
