 Four-times Olympic champion, Mo Farah, says he is targeting the one-hour world record at the AG Memorial Van Damme meet in Brussels on Sept. 4.

He is returning to the tracks for the first time since switching to road racing in 2017.

The men’s record of 21.285 km was set by Ethiopia’s Haile Gebrselassie in Ostrava in 2007.

The Brussels event is part of the revamped calendar of athletics meetings announced by the Diamond League due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

“Together with my training partner Bashir Abdi, I’m going to attack the hour record at the AG Memorial Van Damme,” the 37-year-old Farah said in a statement on the event’s website.
