Scottish marathon runners came up with some fine performances in London – and that is reflected in our Road Race Grand Prix.

No fewer than 11 athletes ran inside the A and B standard times asked as we seek to raise standards in road running.

Seven of those were A standard performances led by British champion Eilish McColgan and British bronze medallist Weynay Ghebresilasie.

Women A Standards (inside 2:40.00):

Eilish McColgan 2:24.51; Brogan Wallace 2:35.01; Katrina Ballantyne 2:35.32; Stephanie Pennycook 2:38.32.

Men A Standards (inside 2:19.00)

Weynay Ghebresilasie (2:06.59); Andrew Fyfe (2:12.36); Charlie Sandison (2:16:53)

Men B Standards (inside 2:23.00)

James Dunn (2:20.15); Dougie Selman (2:21.24); Sam O’Neil (2:22.28); Lewis Rodgers (2:23.00)

The next stage of the Road Race GP, within our Lindsays Road Race Series for 2026, is coming up on Friday night – at the Lindsays Scottish 5k Champs in the Sri Chinmoy event at Silverknowes in Edinburgh.
