Mo Farah talks trash to fellow runner, says Taylor Swift probably faster
Great Britain’s Mo Farah is one of the best distance runners in the world. He has two Olympic gold medals, three World Championship gold medals, and five European Championship gold medals among the honors he’s received. That didn’t stop countryman Andy Vernon from taking a shot at him over the competition Farah would be facing during an upcoming event.
What followed was the two exchanging jabs via their respective Twitter accounts, which included Farah concluding Taylor Swift might be able to run faster than Vernon.
@AndyVernonGB Shame you didn't make the line up….again #ComeBackWhenYouWinSomethingDecent

Lol @Mo_Farah I think even you can work out that I can make the cut to the Indoor Grand Prix. Lets hope no one loses their shoe…

@Mo_Farah. 1) stop quoting Taylor Swift. 2) I don't hate you Mo. I would just rather watch a race than the the Mo Show. #playersgonnaplay

@AndyVernonGB that's why they didn't put you in the race mate.. Cos you're an embarrassment!! Taylor swift can probably run faster than you!

From coming out of the gate with “didn’t make the lineup….again” to insinuating he would leave Vernon in the dust “as always” Farah certainly wasn’t backing down. Calling Vernon an embarrassment and proclaiming he might not win a foot race against Taylor Swift were the knockout blows.
H/T For The Win
