He’s insufferable.
^This.
Mo is the reason I’ve completely lost interest in watching elite level running.

It's a Somalian victory.
Kind of like when the USA claims the victories of Eritrean born Mebrahtom "Meb" Keflezighi when he won Silver in the 2004 Olympic Games, right? Couple that with Meb's 2009 NYC victory and 2014 Boston victory, along with other achievements.
Pretty desperate when the USA has to claim that as a USA victory, lol.

Ha ha! Just going to drop this in this thread since it read even better now post Chicago:-
Mo's entire running career is based on British foundations. He's no Lagat, he's no Chelimo, he grew up British and we all watched him grow up and rise through the ranks here. That's why there was that incredible connection with the fans when he cemented the double London Olympic Games and became a hero to our nation.
You can write all the racist crap you like about Sir Mo but we Brit fans just laugh in your face because we know it's nothing more than a "flag of convenience" to excuse the inadequate performances of your very own home-grown "stars", e.g. Rupp.

From reading his history, its obvious why. Being a supporter of this nonsense is one of the reasons athletics is in the woes that it is. If that is you, then you can well consider yourself part of the problem.

I presume you’re talking about the ‘deaf’ Sir Mo.
Odd how he only became world class when he joined the Salazar regime.
Nudge, nudge!
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/sportsnews/article-3130427/The-video-Mo-Farah-drug-testers-rang-doorbell-hour-couldn-t-hear.htmlYes, nice statements there.
UK Anti-Doping officials said Farah avoided an instant ban of up to four years in 2011 because they concluded he was negligent rather than guilty of evading testers at his London home in Teddington.
and
UKAD director of Legal, Graham Arthur, said: ‘We have got a pretty detailed protocol for doping control officers to follow when they conduct an in-hours test. It includes ringing the doorbell every 10-15 minutes or so, knocking and staying there for the full hour.
'We often ask them to stay a little bit past the hour as well. But a missed test doesn’t mean that somebody has deliberately not opened the door, or has hidden in the bathroom for an hour. If we thought that had happened, we’d take action against them for evasion, and ban them for trying to hide from testers.
'Action would be taken against them for evading doping control and that carries a four-year ban if we prove our case.’
This 2011 case sounds a lot like UCI with Armstrong in 1999. A bit more consequence, and those two would never have won and won and won. Same old, same old.

So triggered. Who is talking about racism? Mo is from Somalia. It’s just a fact. Are you saying there is something wrong with being from Somalia?
He smashed Rupp.

So? Kipchoge would smash Mo. it’s sports. There can only be one winner in a race. Good for Mo.

Ha ha - anyone who watched The Great North Run a few weeks ago would have known that was coming.
He blew them ALL AWAY over that closing 2/3 miles. Incredible to watch such domination...
A lovely touch by Sir Mo though to hang around at the finish line and wait for Rupp to (finally) come home and make sure he was ok. A class act.
G.O.A.T.
only the greatest racer over 5, 10, and now marathon when the others don't burn the kick out of him. Kipchoge by far the goat

Wait, you are saying there is something wrong with being from Somalia?
He is from Somalia, you know. You use the work racism a lot, but I’m not sure you understand what it means. You should work on that.
