With the 2024 Olympics having come to an end with last night's closing ceremony, it's been incredible to see the achievements of the Scottish and British athletes who competed. We are sure we will hear a lot more of these names in the near future, whilst they inspire the next generation, just as Eric Liddell is still doing. #Olympics #EricLiddell100 #EricLiddellLegacy

History in the making! Tonight we will see Matthew Hudson-Smith compete in the Men's 400m Final at the 2024 Paris Olympics, as he looks to take home Gold. A gold medal that Eric Liddell took home 100 years ago in the same city, also being the last British runner to do so? Will we see Matthew rewrite history tonight? Everyone at The Eric Liddell 100 will be behind him all of the way. #EricLiddell100 #Olympics #MatthewHudsonSmith #EricLiddellLegacy
