Farah confirms Commonwealth Games fitness

Mo Farah has revealed that he will compete at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow later this month.

The 31-year-old's participation in Scotland had been thrown into doubt because of an abdominal problem that forced him to withdraw from the Glasgow Grand Prix last week.

However, the double Olympic champion took to Twitter this afternoon to confirm that he is fit enough to take his place in the England team.
