Cameron Green finished ahead of a field of close to 1000 participants in the Baxters River Ness 5k to win gold with a time of 15 minutes and 21 seconds.
The 17 year-old Glasgow-based athlete, who runs for Giffnock North Athletics Club was satisfied with the result although admits he would like to have been faster.
He said: “I used to live in Inverness and I actually took part in this event when I was seven or eight.
"I think I did around 22 minutes on that occasion.
"I still have family here so it was good to come back and be part of the running festival after all those years.
"I ran a personal best 14:56 last weekend so I was hoping to be quicker today but I was out on my own so I’m happy enough with the time.”
Lachlan Thomas (Ross County AC) was runner-up with his clubmate Andrew Baird in third position.
