One of Scottish Athletics’ biggest gatherings takes place on Saturday at Glasgow’s Emirates Arena.
Athletes of all ages and abilities will gather for the 2018 FPSG National Open – in total 795 have entered events from sprints to 1500m and indoors jumps and throws.
The event is contested on a mixed gender basis and allows youngsters to compete alongside their athletics heroes.
Scott Hannaway, 15, of Inverclyde AC, has entered the 400m. His personal best time of 51.85 betters that of double Commonwealth Games medallist Eilidh Doyle, by just one hundredth of a second.
The races are seeded by time, meaning Hannaway, who usually competes in the under-17 age group, is set to line up alongside the Olympian and Great Britain captain.
“It’s amazing to be racing Eilidh as she is one of my role models,” said Hannaway.
“This race is a big step in my career and I will run my best.”
