McAslan forced to withdraw from Scottish senior championships after illness curse strikes again

JANUARY is the peak season when it comes to picking up cold and flu symptoms but Kirsten McAslan would do anything for a clean bill of health for a change. It was revealed yesterday that the 23-year-old, who missed out on Rio due to a bout of glandular fever, has had to withdraw from this Saturday’s Scottish Senior Indoor Championships at the Emirates Arena after succumbing to illness on her flight back from her winter warm weather training camp in Tenerife.
