Hawkins shine in Houilles

Published by kilbarchan Web on

Callum and Derek Hawkins ended the year in dramatic fashion crossing the line in Paris in 29:23 and 29:24 respectively, finishing 12th and 13th at Corrida de Houilles 10k. 

Callum is fresh from a debut marathon which is a qualifying time for Rio 2016 Olympics while Derek is returning from an injury plagued latter half of 2015. 

The 29:24 is a 17-second PB for Derek, his fastest over the 10k since the 2012 Great Manchester 10k.
