Colin McCourt (born 11 December 1984) is an English former middle distance runner.
Biography McCourt finished runner-up behind Andy Baddeley at the 2010 British Athletics Championships.
He represented England at the 2010 Commonwealth Games in Delhi.
In 2017 McCourt hit the headlines for a bet he was undertaking. Having ballooned to 94 kg (14.8 stone) since retiring from athletics, he stands to win £1700 after finishing a 5k in under 16 minutes in 2017. If he failed he had to have the names of seventeen of his friends tattooed onto his back. He finished the race in 15:38 thus beating the bet significantly.
