Congratulations to Inverness athlete Megan Keith on setting a new Scottish 3000m record in Oslo! ๐
A phenomenal performance, a new PB AND a record broken that had stood for 38 years. ๐คฉ
She`s a former River Ness 10K winner back in 2021, and it`s been incredible to watch Megan continue to reach new heights on the world stage.
