James Dellow

James A. Dellow (March 22, 1887 – February 27, 1970) was a Canadian middle and distance runner of the 1910s. He competed in the marathon at the 1920 Summer Olympics.

Biography Dellow was born in 1887 near Parkhill, Ontario, Canada, son of Alfred Dellow and Rosa Victoria Hagel. He and his older brother William excelled in local middle-distance and marathon events.

In 1910 through 1913, the Parkhill fair brought some of Canada's best middle-distance runners to challenge the local runners. In 1910, four laps of a half-mile track, Dellow led the field, followed by three other local boys. In 1912, six miles on the same track, he was second behind Jim Corkery, with brother Bill coming in fourth. In 1913, the race was extended to 10 miles, and Dellow led the field by 54 minutes. Ernie Cook came second and brother Bill third.

Dellow died in February 1970.
