Congratulations to Inverness athlete Megan Keith on setting a new Scottish 3000m record in Oslo! 👏

A phenomenal performance, a new PB AND a record broken that had stood for 38 years. 🤩

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.

Marathons are better with friends.

Tag the person you’d trust to pace you through the final 6 miles, or the friend who always promises `it`s flat from here on out` when it`s definitely a hill.

P.S. We still have charity spots!👇
