European XC Championship Team Announcement
British Athletics have today announced the GB & NI team for the SPAR European Cross Country Championships in Belgrade, Serbia, on Sunday 8 December.
Callum Hawkins will be a member of the Under 23 team following his excellent showing at Liverpool on Sunday.
Congratulations and best of luck for the race.
“It was a frustrating time and there was a lot of rehab work that had to be done after knee operations in March 2012 and then in December that year as well. I want to thank my physio, Linda Hardy of the sportscotland Institute of Sport, for all the support over the past few months. I’ve felt much better in the last few weeks and it was a decent run in Liverpool.
“I had actually not done a cross country event since the Edinburgh one right at the start of 2012 – so almost two years. But I’ve been to Euro and World Cross events before and worn the GB vest so I kind of know what to expect although It does feel a while ago now. It will be great to do it again in Belgrade and run for GB.”
