Eilish McColgan will have a very busy summer and fall, but that is the way that she likes it. Her 30:19 last June attested to her fitness, and she will be in Eugene to run the 10,000m and 5,000m, and then, to compete in the Commonwealth Games for Scotland! Thanks, once again to Stuart Weir for this one!

The news that Eilish McColgan will run a marathon will surprise no one. The interest is “when”, that it will be in London this year. It is a running theme of Eilish’s career that she is following in her mother’s footsteps – and regularly beating Liz’s personal bests.  Liz McColgan won London 26 years ago.

McColgan, who has prepared for her marathon debut by pacemaking at the past two London Marathons, said: “I’m so excited to finally be taking part in the TCS London Marathon. I’ve been looking forward to and planning the step up to the marathon distance over the past number of years and this year’s London Marathon comes at the perfect time after a busy summer on the track.

“Obviously, the London Marathon holds a very special place in the heart of my family with my mum’s win in 1996. I don’t actually remember the race myself, but I’ve seen the finish many times down the years. I’m now looking forward to experiencing it for myself.”

Before that Eilish is entered in the 5k and 10k in Oregon as well as representing Scotland in the Commonwealth Games.

McColgan has always been a versatile athlete with the following PRs

1500 Metres 4:00.97

One Mile 4:24.71

3000 Metres 8:31.00

5000 Metres 14:28.55

10,000 Metres 30:19.02

3000 Metres Steeplechase 9:35.82

5 Kilometres Road 14:45

10 Kilometres Road 30:191

0 Miles Road 50:43

Half Marathon 1:06:26

She won bronze in the 5000m in the 2018 European Championships and in the 2017 European Indoor 3000m
