Haile Gebrselassie triumphs in Madrid
26 April 2010
G4S 4teen mentor and current marathon record holder Haile Gebrselassie took to the streets of Madrid to race in the 10km race for the first time on the 25th April.
Haile had previously had to pull out of the New York marathon a few weeks prior to Madrid, due to his asthma. However, Haile re-established himself as one of the finest long-distance runners in Madrid, by winning the race, in which there were 5,000 competitors.
He is planning to next run in the marathon in Manchester on the 16th May.
