Medal record
|
Ernest Glover (19 February 1891 – 13 April 1954) was a British athlete who competed in the 5,000 metres, the 10,000 metres, and in cross country at the 1912 Summer Olympics held in Stockholm, Sweden. [3] Glover's 16th place in the individual cross country event helped him to earn a bronze medal with teammates Frederick Hibbins and Thomas Humphreys in the team competition. Although he qualified for the 5,000 m and 10,000 m finals, he withdrew from both. [4]
At the 1913 English Cross Country Union championships in Wolverhampton, Glover earned the national title in cross country. [5] [6] [nb 1] That same year, he won the 10 mile event at the Amateur Athletic Association Championships in London in a time of 51:56.8. [6]
At the International Cross Country Championships, Glover finished second to Jean Bouin in 1913, then third to Alfred Nichols and George Wallach in 1914. [8]
