European Athletics is pleased to announce that British middle distance star Mo Farah and Croatian High Jumping star Blanka Vlasic have been selected as the European Athletes of the Month for January.
Mo Farah went some way to banishing his Beijing blues by winning the Great North Mile in Newcastle.
Farah showed an impressive turn of pace to cross the line in 4min 12sec and admitted that he was still struggling to come to terms with his failure to reach the 5,000m final at the Olympics.
Mo farah was excellent today winning the 3km Road Race in Newcastle, beating Kenya's Kipchoge. Farah biding his time until 150 metres from the finish line, stormed past Kenya's 2003 World gold and 2007 World silver 5000m track medallist Eliud Kipchoge to claim victory in a time of 7:56.3. Well done Mo farah.
People were interested even though I come from Britain. They said why didn't I run for Somaliland, but they were still proud of me. I couldn't live there now though, I'm used to Western life
