Mo Farah will take to the start line at the Great Manchester 10k today for the penultimate race of his career before his retirement in September.
Farah, 40, announced this year’s Great North Run will be his final competitive race after he finished ninth in April’s London Marathon.
It will be the first time since 2018 that four-time Olympic champion Farah has raced the Manchester event.
On that occasion, he triumphed in a sprint finish against Moses Kipsiro.

“It will probably be quite emotional, but I’m so happy to have the chance to race in Manchester again before I retire,” Farah said.
