Shona’s Grand Slam marathon success

Written by Fiona Outdoors April 21 2014 —

Glasgow ultra runner Shona Thomson has run into the record books, becoming the first Scots woman to achieve the Grand Slam Marathon Club status. She ran a marathon on every continent (like Sir Ranulph Fiennes) and then ran another at the North Pole. Read about her achievement in my Sunday Mail article. You can also hear her talk on May 22 at Ellis Brigham Xscape, Braehead, near Glasgow. Click on the pic to see the full pdf.
