Hodder & Stoughton admire Sir Mo's bravery in revealing his
experience of being trafficked as a child. His memoir TWIN
AMBITIONS, published in 2013, is based on the story he felt able to
tell at the time, which we understood to be the true version of
events. It is now clear that Sir Mo did not wish to share some of
his difficult early experiences and we respect the decisions he
made both then and now. 4 August, 2012. Super Saturday. On the most
electric night in the history of British sport, Mo Farah braved the
pain and punishment to seize Olympic gold in the 10,000m - and in
the process went from being a talented athlete to a national
treasure. Seven days later, Mo seized his second gold at the 5000m
to go where no British distance runner has gone before. In 2016 Mo
acheived an even more stunning feat at the Rio Olympic Games,
successfully defending both his titles to complete an extraordinary
double-double. Records have tumbled before him: European track
records at 1500m, 5000m indoors, and 10,000m; British track records
at 5000m, 3000m indoors and 10k on the road have all fallen to
Mohamed 'Mo' Farah: the boy from Somalia who came to Britain at the
age of eight, leaving behind his twin brother, and with just a few
words of English, and a natural talent for running. TWIN AMBITIONS
is much more than an autobiography by a great Olympic champion.
It's a moving human story of a man who grew up in difficult
circumstances, separated from his family at an early age, who
struggled to overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles to become
Britain's most decorated Olympic track-and-field athlete ever.
