18 November 2011
G4S 4teen mentor and distance running legend Haile Gebrselassie will aim to run a qualification time for London 2012 at the Tokyo Marathon in February. Haile, who dropped out of the Berlin marathon earlier this year due to inflammation in his windpipe, is back to full health and competing again. Haile returned to form with a victory in the recent Birmingham Half Marathon and has strong hopes of qualifying for next summer’s Olympics in Tokyo on the 26th February
Best of luck to Haile, who is also competing in Nijmegan, the Netherlands in the 7Hills 15k race this weekend.
