Maybe he is good for a nation, suggested Dutchman Charles van Commenee in a unify call to arms in front of this summer's London Olympics. Van Commenee, the head coach of UK Athletics, was tiresome to make his voice heard in the middle of the racket that accompany, and then followed, Farah's rousing 1500 meters victory in the closing event of the Aviva International.

The 28-year-old Somalian-born athlete, the world champion at 5000 meters, stepped down to 1500 meters and beat the alarming Kenyan Augustine Choge, the fastest man in the world over that distance at home last year, with a time of 3.39.03, a new sports ground record.
