Farah for London 3k
LONDON (GBR): Mo Farah has announced a final chance for fans to see him compete at the home of his famous ‘double gold’ triumph of London 2012. With both of Farah’s sessions at the 2017 World Championships sold out, The Müller Anniversary Games on July 9 is the last chance to see one of Britain’s sporting legends alongside many of the best athletes in the world. On July 9 he will run the 3000 m. Farah added: “The meet is only four weeks before the World Championships so it will be a good to see where I am at and what fine tuning needs to be done. I had some great races in this stadium and would like to put on a good performance to thank the fans for all their support over the years. I hope the fans will come out in force and create a great atmosphere.”
