Brother Derek Hawkins missed out through injury as a precaution ahead of Rio and unfortunately Tsegai Tewelde was a late call-off due to illness.
Well done to Callum, coach Robert and family and all involved in his development over the years at club level.
Disappointed with today's race got my tactics wrong and went out too quick. Finished strong though. Great lessons learned for Rio. #ECH2016
