The older Penrice siblings, Laura and Euan, enjoyed great success over 1500m, whilst competing for Shettleston Harriers.

14-year-old Laura recently smashed her PB in her favourite event, the 800m. However, the rewards of a good cross country season showed over the longer distance, with Laura smaskign her previous 1500m PB by over 17 seconds. She finished 2nd in the race in an impressive 5:01.42.

Younger brother Euan, 12, finished 3rd in his race, again with another big PB. He chopped 6 and a half seconds off his best to clock 5:14.19.

After a relatively disappointing year in 2009, Hope Robertson (Edinburgh AC) kicked off her season well. She won the 100m in a time of 12.71, which wasn't particularly fast but factor in a -2.7m/s headwind and this was an impressive run. Hope also competed in the 200m, where she finished 2nd behind Scottish champion Stacey Downie. Her time was a good 25.64, again with a strong headwind.
