Megan Keith from Inverness secured her place in the Paris Olympics with a remarkable performance in the 10k Olympic qualifier at Hampstead and Highgate track during the night of the 10km PBs. Keith's tactical race and impressive final kick earned her the victory. Meanwhile, Paddy Dever finished second in the men's race. In another notable achievement, Stanford alum Fiona O'Keeffe earned a berth to Paris in her first ever marathon, shattering the U.S. Olympic trials record and recalibrating her expectations for the Summer Games.

Started the day in Inverness. Ended it watching Inverness athlete Megan Keith win 10k Olympic qualifier at Hampstead and Highgate track. Fantastic event. Big crowds and a great finish. Paddy Dever second in the men’s https://t.co/o80O4IwdLu
Megan Keith with just a truly wonderful home straight kick to send herself to Paris. Stayed calm in a tactical race, responded well to surges/lead changes, and some bottle to find that extra bit that deep in the atmosphere of the night of the 10km PBs 👏
