LONDON: UK Athletics performance director Neil Black is to stand down, the governing body said on Tuesday, after he said he would review his position following the doping ban handed down to Olympic champion Mo Farah's former coach Alberto Salazar.
In 2015, when USADA began investigating potential doping violations, Salazar was coaching Farah, whom he helped become a four-time Olympic champion distance runner. UK Athletics reviewed Salazar's link with Farah at the time and concluded there was"no reason to be concerned". A statement from UK Athletics read:"UK Athletics have announced that Neil Black will leave his role as performance director at the end of October."Neil will commence a detailed handover with performance staff until his departure and will fulfil his role supporting Mo Farah at this weekend's Chicago marathon."
