About this Event

The upcoming panel interview promises to be a captivating event, featuring three exceptional masters athletes whose achievements have resulted in record breaking performances from a national to world level!

Paul Forbes: A former Scottish Commonwealth Games athlete back in the 1980s for 800m, Paul had tussles with some of the greats such as Steve Ovett & Seb Coe. Decades later, he has returned to the sport as a masters athlete and is now breaking world records!

Fiona Matheson: Fiona has been running for many years as a high performing senior athlete at national level. Since Fiona has joined the masters category she has been smashing numerous UK and world records and doesn’t appear to be slowing down anytime soon!

Grant Baillie: Since joining the masters category, Grant has demonstrated that he is one of the world’s top endurance masters even with 30 plus years of running in his legs! Grant is also hot off a gold medal performance at the World Masters Championships in Sweden for the 3000m steeplechase!

This event offers a unique opportunity to hear first hand from the veterans of our sport about secrets to their high level performances, challenges and insights into what it’s like to compete as a master in running & athletics. Whether you’re an aspiring athlete, a seasoned competitor, or a fan of inspiring stories, this panel is not to be missed!
