GB's Mo Farah aiming for more world records following two-mile triumph

By , Staff Reporter
Great Britain's Mo Farah sets his sights on breaking the world record in the 10,000m and 5,000m after setting a new record in the two-mile indoor race.

Great Britain's Mo Farah has revealed that he wants to break the world record in both the 10,000m and 5,000m races.

The 31-year-old is determined to reach the feat after breaking the record in the two-mile indoor race in Birmingham at the weekend.

Farah secured the triumph in 8:03.40 seconds, beating Ethiopian Kenenisa Bekele's time of 8:04.34.

"To break the world record is amazing," The Mirror quotes Farah as saying. "Having got that feeling now I will try for the 10k or 5k. I don't know how close I can get to it. But if you don't try you will never know. So I will definitely give it a go."

Farah will aim to defend his double Olympic crown in Rio next year.
