Storm Hannah may have blown over but the clouds hanging over Sir Mo Farah have stubbornly refused to dissipate. As he prepared for Sunday’s London marathon, he has been on the front pages and the back, accused of starting a “brawl” with another athlete, getting shirty with a gym instructor for “copying his routine” and not paying a hotel bill.
To make matters worse he has also faced renewed questions over his relationship with the controversial coach Jama Aden, who faces doping charges by Spanish police, as well as more negative stories in Sunday’s papers. And yet, as Farah prepares to line up for the London Marathon, he is convinced he can do better than last year, when he finished third on a broiling hot day.
