Trafford 10k podium
Scottish athlete Kev Campbell ran 28.49 to win the Run North West Trafford 10k on Sunday.
The Cambuslang Harriers athlete was first ahead of Scott Stirling (Falkirk Victoria) in 29.20. That made it an excellent 1-2 for Scottish athletes.
We understand Kev, who is 38, moves to 14th on the all time Scottish 10k list and only three seconds behind Jamie Crowe.
And the win sets him up perfectly for soon travelling to Delhi to represent GB and NI in the World 50k Champs.
