Mo master of Big Half

SIR MO FARAH’S preparations for the London Marathon got a lift as he won the Vitality Big Half.

The four-time Olympic champion completed the halfmarathon course in the capital in an unofficial time of one hour, one minute and 39 seconds.

Farah, who has been training in Ethiopia, won a sprint finish with 2017 London Marathon winner Daniel Wanjiru, of Kenya.

Sunday’s victory is a fillip for Farah ahead of the London Marathon on April 22.

He said: “I enjoyed it, it was comfortable.

“It was a little bit wet and cold, compared to 25 degrees in Africa.

“It’s a big shock but you get used to it.”
