Glasgow Great Scottish Run records invalidated after 10k route was 150m short

The Glasgow Great Scottish Run which took place earlier this month has been invalidated after an investigation proved the route was 150 metres too short.

The event, which took place over the weekend of October 1 and saw an estimated 25,000 people take part, was the first in three years after being cancelled due to the pandemic.

It was found to be due to human error, as a part of the course had not been laid out correctly in accordance with previous plans. The error had a marginal knock on to the half marathon distance but remained within tolerance and so remains valid.
