He represented Great Britain in three Olympic Games and won a silver medal for Wales at the 1986 Commonwealth Games. BiographyHackney, who was a member of the Royal Air Force, and trained at Aldershot, Farnham and District AC, specialised in the 3000m steeplechase. He made his Olympics debut as a 22-year old at the 1980 Moscow Games and was seventh in his semi-final, only just missing out on a spot in the final, with the next best time of the competitors that missed out.[1] At the 1983 World Championships in Helsinki, Hackney came fifth in the final of the steeplechase.[2] His best performance in the Olympics came at the 1984 Los Angeles Games where he ran the semi-final in 8:20.77 and qualified for the final, in which he finished 10th.[3] He won a silver medal representing Wales in the steeplechase at the 1986 Commonwealth Games, in a time of 8:25.15, behind Canada's Graeme Fell and ahead of Colin Reitz, another British athlete.[4] The field was weakened by the absence of many African countries, most notably Kenya, which boycotted the competition over the Thatcher government's sporting links with apartheid South Africa.[5] In 1986 he was also eighth at the European Championships.[2] He was part of the Great British Olympic team for a third and final time at the 1988 Seoul Games. By then aged 31, Hackney once more made it to the semi-final stage, but was unable to complete the race and didn't register a time.[6] His personal best time, 8:18.91, is a Welsh record and was set in 1988, while competing in Belgium.[2] He is the only non Belgian to win the Lotto Cross Cup. He now works in Leeds as an orthopaedic surgeon.[7] International competitionsAll results regarding 3000 metres steeplechase unless stated otherwise.
