Kurt Doerry (24 September 1874 – 4 January, 1947) was a German track and field athlete. He competed at the 1896 Summer Olympics in Athens.[1]
Doerry placed fifth in his preliminary heat of the 100 metres and did not advance to the final.
He also competed in the 400 metres. The records are unclear as to whether Doerry or Alphonse Grisel finished third out of the four-runner preliminary heat, but only the top two athletes in the heat advanced to the final regardless.
Doerry ran the 110 metres hurdles. He finished third or fourth in the preliminary heat of that event as well.
He also participated at the 1900 Summer Olympics in Paris in the 100 metres event, making it to the semifinals before withdrawing.
