Sir Mo Farah's Greatest North Run
A Villanelle To Celebrate Sir Mo Farah's Final Race As A Profession at the Newcastle Great North Run
Today Sir Mo Farah takes part in in his final run as a professional. It's in the Newcastle Great North Run from Newcastle to South Shields.
I have decided to mark this with a villanelle as there will be hundreds of articles that will say things so much better than I can.

This was a wonderful tribute to him! I loved it!
A great tribute
The end of an era. What will he do next?
A fitting tribute. Not sure others will say it as well as this, Mike.
