George Lermond was AAU champion at 6-miles in 1925 after finishing second in that event in 1924. Indoors he won the AAU 3 miles in 1932-33. He ran for West Point, Boston College, the Boston AA, and the NYAC.

He served in the military with the 15th Infantry Regiment, where their garrison helped in the rescue of Tientsin, China from Japanese forces. He also died in heroic circumstances. His home caught on fire, and he and his wife went back in to rescue two of their sons. George Lermond returned to the flaming house a third time, trying to rescue his youngest son, George, Jr., but they both perished in the attempt. The two were buried at Arlington National Cemetery, after permission was given by President Franklin Roosevelt.
