Josh Kerr boosts British hopes in opting to run at World Indoor Championships
- Kerr to contest 3000m in Glasgow as part of a strong field
- Dina Asher-Smith and Katarina Johnson-Thompson both absent
Josh Kerr, the world 1500m champion, has given British athletics a major boost by deciding to run in next week’s World Indoor Championships in Glasgow.
The 26-year-old Scot, who last week shattered Mo Farah’s world two-mile indoor best by nearly three seconds, had been on the fence over whether to compete given his overwhelming focus for 2024 is on the Paris Olympics and he trains in the United States.
