Georg Alexander Docherty (6 May 1904 – 3 November 1973) was a Canadian middle-distance runner. He competed in the men's 1500 metres at the 1928 Summer Olympics.[1][2]
By that summer, Dochetry's own time in the mile was 4 minutes and 20 seconds, recorded during local coverage of his pending return.[3] Dochetry attempted to make another comeback in 1934, and local media at the time alluded to him teaming up with Canada's then-record holder for the mile run Les Wade.[4]
