Airdrie Harriers athlete Brodie Young put his experience at the World Junior Championships to good use, as he cruised to a 400m senior gold medal at the Scottish National Championships in Aberdeen earlier this month.
The 19-year-old topped the podium in the Granite City with a fantastic time of 47.13s, finishing ahead of Giffnock North’s Kyle Alexander (47.40s) and Dundee Hawkhill’s Scott Hannaway (49.09s).
Brodie’s effort was well inside Scottish Athletics’ ‘bronze standard time’ of 47.20s for the men’s 400m and helped him pocket a share of the £5000 prize pot on offer at the event.
