Double Olympic champion Kenenisa Bekele has been suspended indefinitely by the Ethiopian Athletics Federation following a row over training camps.

Haile Gebrselassie’s agent insists the Ethiopian legend will not retire, despite dropping out of his second marathon in succession and seeing his world record smashed.

LAST year even Zersenay Tadesse himself appeared shocked when he stood on the podium to accept the gold medal at the world cross-country championships in Mombasa.

Olympic legend Haile Gebrselassie was tonight facing possible Athens heartbreak with an Achilles injury threatening to rule him out of the Games.

Haile Gebrselassie believes he can break the world marathon record on Sunday when he makes his debut over 26 miles at the Flora London Marathon.
