TOM McKEAN is a former Scottish 800m athlete who won the European Championships in Split in 1990 and also the indoor title in his home town of Glasgow in the same year. He also won the World Indoor title in 1993 in Toronto and also claimed medals in European Championships in 1986 in Stuttgart where he picked up silver and in the same year, another silver in the Commonwealth Games in Edinburgh along with a silver in the 4x400m relay for Scotland. His personal best of 1:43.88 was set in 1989 in London. He was arguably one of our best 800m runners especially when the first 400m was not too fast and his trademark kick won hime many races. He won all his European Cup races from 1985 50 1991. After retiring from athletes McKean became a Strathclyde constable.
