I have over 200 landings with the B737-200 and never had any problems with the RWY.
A precise approach and touchdown point is all you need.
BTW i flew into YGW when there were 2 strips before they condemned 03/21

Flew in many times, B737-200 and Lockheed L188. Short runway, often icy. No overuns at either end.
