West Lothian's Sarah Calvert seals double national title for second straight year

Sarah Calvert was in stunning form at the Scottish National Championships over the weekend as she won the under-20 800m and 1500m double for the second successive year.

The Livingston AC member eased to the title in the 800m on Saturday with her time of 2:07.86 being nearly six seconds faster than her closest rival.

Team-mate Katie Craig broke her personal best with a time of 2:20.98 to grab an impressive fourth place.

In poor weather the following day, Sarah was at it once again as she won the 1500m by a similar margin. Her time of 4:29.00 was over five seconds faster than runner-up Niamh Carr of Springwell.

Once again, Katie Craig reached the final and grabbed a new personal best with her time of 4:47.36 placing her in eighth.

The club’s Ricky Arthurs ran a new personal best in the 400m with a time of 52.45.
