Dundee star Eilish McColgan reveals drug test ‘confusion’ over Euro 10km record

Eilish McColgan wins Great Scottish Run.

Dundee star Eilish McColgan said her new 10km European record would only be official if she passed a drug test on Sunday night.

McColgan triumphed at the Great Scottish Run in Glasgow – with a time of 30 minutes and 18 seconds – just hours before a celebration in City Square to mark her Commonwealth Games exploits.

And her return home, along with her departure for holiday on Monday, left her with a race against time to ratify the feat.

‘Bit of confusion’

Speaking on Sunday afternoon, the 31-year-old told The Courier: “We are still waiting to find out if we broke the European record.

“There has been a bit of confusion. I have to go back tonight to be drug tested to tick that box.

“If it is not a European record though it is still a British record.

“I’m on holiday tomorrow so we can properly celebrate then. We’re doing a week in Seychelles and then a week in Egypt.

“I’ve never been to either before so I’m looking forward to some relaxation and some sightseeing.”
