The Scottish record holder at 400m hurdles and the indoor 400m has won medals at world and European level but announced in August last year she would be taking a break from sport as she was pregnant.
However she hopes to be back in action before the 2020 Toyko Olympics in July.
Doyle, whose maiden name is Child but who has been married to husband Brian since 2015, is one of Scotland’s most decorated athletes.
