Reid was born in England, but raised in Southern Africa, where his father worked as a school inspector in Basutoland (now Lesotho). He then studied medicine at Edinburgh University and won several Scottish AAA sprint titles in 1930–1933. He was selected for the 1932 Olympics, but pulled a muscle after starting his 100 m heat, and had to abandon the race. After graduating from Edinburgh University, Reid worked as a doctor in Johannesburg. He resumed competing in the 1970s, representing Rhodesia, and won the 100 m title in the 70–74 age group in a time of 13.80.
