    Four-time Olympic champion Sir Mo Farah has failed to qualify for the Tokyo Games

    Four-time Olympic champion Sir Mo Farah has failed to qualify for the Tokyo Games


    The 38-year-old Brit has missed selection in the 10-thousand metres, which he claimed gold in at Rio and London.

    He's also twice won in the five-thousand metres.

    Farah has spent most of the last three years focussing on the road, rather than track.
