Megan Keith ended last year as the Women’s U23 gold medallist at the Euro Cross in Belgium.
And Megan made a superb start to 2024 with a big PB performance at the Valencia 10k in Spain on Sunday morning.
The Inverness Harriers/Edinburgh Uni Hare and Hounds athlete finished 18th in a world class field and clocked a stunning 31:20 (chip)
That takes Megan to seventh in the British all-time list for the distance and is the third fastest 10k on the road by a Scottish woman – only Eilish and Liz McColgan have run faster.
It was a good day, too, for Alice Goodall. Alice clocked a PB with a run of 32:04 in Valencia. That is seventh best by a Scot.
Well done to both athletes and their coaches and clubs on two performances which really bode well for the year ahead in different disciplines.
*Steph Twell was back in half marathon action in Houston. Steph posted a solid 72.00 (with her PB at 68:55 from 2020).
