Mo Farah has revealed that he does not intend to run at next year’s Commonwealth Games in Glasgow.
The Olympic 10,000 metres and 5,000m champion is instead targeting next year’s London Marathon, saying that the Commonwealth Games “is not on my list”.
While Farah stopped short of completely ruling himself out of the Glasgow event, he is set to focus on the marathon as he decides whether to make the step up to a new challenge before the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro.
“I don’t know. It just depends how I come off that marathon,” he told BBC Radio 5 Live.
“My aim is to do the London marathon and that is what I am fully focused on. It’s a bonus if I do it, but it is not on my list.”
Asked what it would take for him to appear in Glasgow, he added: “I’ve got to come off the marathon healthy and then I’d make a decision.
“You’ve just got to choose one race.”
