Honorary Life Members awarded in 2025

As we move into 2026 athletes will wear the EAC vest with pride on the roads, country, trails, hills and on the track. The eagle eyed will also spot EAC officials and coaches where many of them have been for decades, trackside or on the field of play. They started their journeys as athletes or parent helpers and are still actively involved in ensuring EAC remain one of the top clubs in Scotland.

The award of Life Membership is the highest honour Edinburgh Athletic Club can bestow on an individual and is done so in recognition of a member who has made an extraordinary contribution to Edinburgh Athletic Club over many years, that is above and beyond what is expected of any member and 15 worthy recipients were awarded Life Membership in recognition of the outstanding commitment they have shown to EAC and athletics in Edinburgh in some cases for over 60 years.
