Mo Farah to compete in 5,000m and 10,000m at Commonwealth Games

Mo Farah has confirmed that he will represent England in the 5,000m and 10,000m events at the Commonwealth Games.

The double Olympic champion, who has not raced since the London Marathon in April, is the defending champion across both distances.

Farah also broke Steve Cram's 28-year-old British record across 1,500m last year before his marathon training commenced.

The 5,000m race will be the first men's track title to be decided at this summer's Commonwealth Games, with the 10,000m contested five days later.

The Commonwealth Games will take place in Glasgow from July 23.
