Athletes compete in Great Scottish Run
- Published
Thousands of people have taken part in the Great Scottish Run around central Glasgow.
Christopher Thompson, from Surrey, was first over the line on the half-marathon course, beating Scotland's Callum Hawkins by just 34 seconds.
The first female finisher was Kenyan athlete Flomena Cheyech Daniel with a time of 70.17.
Earlier, the first female finisher in the elite wheelchair race was Scottish World Champion Sam Kinghorn, external.
Hawkins won the half-marathon last year, but his record-breaking time was invalidated after the route was found to be too short.
He was hoping to defend his title this year, but could not close a gap opened by Thompson early in the race.
Thompson finished in 62.44 with Hawkins crossing the line at 63.18 - just ahead of Tsegai Tewelde who was third.
Charlotte Purdue was the second woman to finish in 72.18. The first Scottish woman to finish - and the third woman to cross the line - was Fionnuala Ross with a time of 74.26.
A 10km race was also held on Sunday morning, with Stuart Gibson first across the line in 31:37. Rebecca Murray was the first female finisher with a time of 34:30.
Other events for families and children were held in George Square on Saturday.
