Sophie Thomas  had an excellent World Athletics U20 Championships (Oregon 2026) representing Great Britain & Northern Ireland.

​

Her Key achievements:

• 🥈 Won a silver medal in the mixed 4x100m relay as part of the GB & NI team. The quartet of Divine Iheme, Savannah Morgan-McKenzie, Mathew Ajayi and Sophie Thomas finished second in the final with 41.38 seconds, narrowly behind Italy. 

• 🌍 In the heats, the same relay team set a World U20 Record of 41.60 seconds, with Sophie running the anchor leg. The record briefly stood as the fastest-ever U20 mixed 4x100m performance. 

• 🏃 Sophie also competed individually in the 200m, winning her heat in 23.53 seconds to progress to the semifinals.

• ​

For a local athlete from DTFC, becoming a World U20 silver medallist and helping set a World U20 record is a remarkable achievement and one of the biggest international successes by a Fife athlete in recent years.

​

Well done Sophie . We are all so proud of you
