A number of athletes will represent Scotland this weekend at two significant events on the road.
The Home Nations Podium 5k takes place in Wales on Saturday and Northern Ireland is the venue for the Antrim Coast Half Marathon.
Eight athletes will represent Scotland in a road race international opportunity next month in Wales.
We announced the team a few weeks ago and there has been one change to the selection in the interim.
Congratulations to Finlay Ross-Davie of Garscube Harriers who comes into the team for Cardiff.
It’s brilliant to see two track and field Team Scotland Commonwealth Games athletes – Morag Millar and Jenny Selman – feature in this team. Morag was 20 years of age at Melbourne 2006 while Jenny competed at Birmingham 2022.
Scotland Men:
Andrew Fyfe (Edinburgh AC); Alasdair Kinloch (Tonbridge AC); Angus McMillan (City of York AC)
Scotland Women:
Morag Millar (Central AC); Jenny Selman (Fife AC); Stefanie Tucker (Cambuslang Harriers); Kirsty Walker (Edinburgh AC)
Congratulations to these athletes selected to represent Scotland and to their families, coaches and clubs and good luck in Wales.
The races kick off at 6pm with the Home Nations being the last event on the day.
