Haile Gebrselassie running in Vienna Half

Vienna City Half Marathon event organizers have confirmed that the marathon world record holder will be racing through the streets of Vienna come April 15.

Gabrselassie retired after dropping out of the New York City Marathon last fall only to recant that retirement a week later (take that Brett Farve) and run in a 10k in his native Ethiopia.  He was forced to drop out of the Tokyo marathon earlier this year because of a knee injury, but believes he's ready for the half in April.
