MUNICH, Germany : Turkey's Yasemin Can beat Britain's Eilish McColgan to win the women's 10,000 metres gold at the European Athletics Championships on Monday, denying the Commonwealth Games champion a second victory this month.
Eilish McColgan followed up her 10,000 metres Commonwealth title with European silver as she finished second behind Turkey’s Yasemin Can in Munich.
A fortnight of soaring glories continued for Eilish McColgan as she ran her heart out to take a brave European 10,000m silver for Britain here in Munich.
She's barely had a minute to think about where to show off her Commonwealth Games medals with this week’s European Championship following fast after those magical few days in Birmingham.
Former European champion Jo Pavey has backed Eilish McColgan as one of the favourites for Olympic gold at Paris 2024. McColgan put in a gutsy performance to become Commonwealth champion in the 10,000m in one of the biggest moments of Birmingham 2022.
Cycling legend Sir Chris Hoy believes that the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games has been a roaring success, with its true impact only just beginning. Ten years on from the London 2012 Olympic Games, Birmingham delivered a stellar Games, with the likes of Adam Peaty and Eilish McColgan putting in performances that will have inspired future sporting stars – and parents agree. Ad Research by The National Lottery shows that 80 percent of parents say that the presence of sporting role models can play a key role in encouraging their children to be more active.
As the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games draws to a close, Sir Chris Hoy has heralded fellow cyclist Laura Kenny as the perfect role model to get kids active. Five-time Olympic champion Kenny claimed gold in the women's scratch race in Birmingham, only hours after she had thought about giving up the sport altogether after recent illness and injury struggles had impacted her performances.
Birmingham staged the XXII Commonwealth Games with the event being held on British soil for the third time this century after Manchester in 2002 and Glasgow eight years ago.
