Mark Davidson (born 15 November 1968) is a Scottish former sprinter and hurdling athlete who specialised in the 400m hurdles. As of 2017, he is the President of his local athletics club, Aberdeen AAC.[1]
Under the stewardship of long-term coach Dr Robert Masson, Davidson set personal best times of 46.9 in the 400m and 50.79 in the 400m H in 1989.[2] He has since competed as a veteran athlete, travelling to the European Masters' Athletics Championships in Budapest in 2014, where he qualified for the final of the 60m.
In 1990, he was part of the Scotland 4 × 400 m relay team who won a silver medal at the Auckland Commonwealth Games in New Zealand. Also featuring David Strang, Tom McKean, and Brian Whittle, the Scottish athletes set a time of 3:04:68s.[3] In the same competition, Davidson represented Scotland in the 4 × 100 m alongside David Clark, Elliot Bunney, and James Henderson.[4] They would go on to finish 6th in the final whilst setting a time of 39.61s.[3] In the individual event of the 400m H, Davidson clocked 52.17s in the semi-final stages.
As of 2017, Davidson still holds a number of AAAC club records, including the 100m, 200m, 400m, and 400m H.[5]
Davidson continues his lifelong commitment to athletics; he is a qualified sprints coach and tutors a number of athletes in the Aberdeen area alongside Dr Masson.
