Paul Hession ready for Cork test A very much in form Paul Hession goes for a sprint double at the 57th. Cork City Sports at the Mardyke this Saturday (2.00pm start) following a new personal best time in Greece of 20.26 secs., though unfortunately his time was marginally over the permitted limit. His season now moves from Thessalonika to Cork where former Cork winner Dwight Thomas of Jamaica will provide a stern challenge. Evergreen Chris Williams also from Jamaica who ran 20.20 last week to make the rostrum and qualify for Beijing at his national championships will also make his presence felt in both 100m and 200m events and Americans, Chris Johnson, Demetrious McCloud and the Pole, Krzyaztof Jablonski will not be too far off the pace either. However in his current form it is difficult to oppose the Athenry man recording a sprint double on the fast Mardyke surface where he has won the longer sprint for the past two years.
