Another cracking run today for @EilishMccolgan in Muragame 💥 67:07 her 3rd fastest HM ever. What the results don’t show? Solo running for the best part of 8 miles straight into 45km/h gusts 🌬️ Not easy for a lanky beanpole.. 😅 Pound for pound her best HM performance IMO!

My exclusive in today's @heraldscotland with former world marathon record holder and current British record holder, Paula Radcliffe, about why she thinks if anyone's going to break her record, it'll be @EilishMccolgan heraldscotland.com/sport/253…

Paula Radcliffe: Eilish McColgan has a good chance of breaking my British record

Paula Radcliffe is GB's greatest-ever female marathon runner and has held the British marathon record for over 20 years. But with Eilish McColgan having made her marathon debut earlier this year, and...

Couldn't have planned a better few days if I tried: 1. Eilish breaks the Scottish marathon record on debut 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 2. Liverpool win the league 🏆 3. Get engaged to my best friend 💍 Can't help but think it's all downhill from here.. 😅

Super proud of this one last night. 💙 In what will potentially be her last ever track race, she's shown insane resilience to come back from a horrendous 18 months of injury - to still finish as one of the top 15 women in the world!

honestly don't believe there are many, if any (clean) athletes who could do that! So although she'll still feel a little disappointed knowing that training pointed to a better performance, unfortunately you're always going to be up against it when you've missed so much racing

and you're lacking that competitive edge in your running. But it's great to see her running healthy and happy again, that's the main thing, and I suspect with a few more races in those legs it won't be long until she's back to her best! ❤️

New British record for @EilishMccolgan at The Ten, sound Running. 30.00.8... agonizingly close to sub 30. But she will take that off marathon legs! Huge run 💓

New course record and big PB for @EilishMccolgan this morning at the Great South Run. 50:42 (unofficial) to eclipse the old record of 51:00 from the great Sonia O'Sullivan! Brilliant way to end a breakthrough season 🥳🙌 #GreatSouthRun

Proud of @EilishMccolgan today! Could have took the slightly easier route and ran tactically, but wanted to test herself from the gun. Looked a tough 2nd half 😅 but when you feel in shape - why not have a pop! #GoHardOrGoHome
