Mo Farah insists he has made the right decision to run marathons as he warms up for his London debut by tackling the New York Half Marathon on Sunday. Ethiopian great Haile Gebrselassie has suggested it is too early for the Briton, 30, to focus on the 26-mile event rather than the track.
“I’ve won medals on the track so why not test myself,” said Farah. “If I’m good in London, then I’ll do it a couple more times. If not, I’ll come back to the track.” Gebrselassie won two Olympic gold medals and four world titles at 10,000m between 1996 and 2000.
