Double Olympic champion Mo Farah breaks Steve Cram's 28-year-old British record for the 1,500m at a Diamond League meeting in Monaco.

Mo Farah has broken the British record for the 1,500m at the Diamond League meeting in Monaco this evening.

The double Olympic champion knocked almost a second off the previous best, which was set by Steve Cram in 1985.

Cram, who was commentating for BBC Sport at the time, said: "I am shocked in a great way. Mo jokingly said he was after the British record and I laughed but hats off to him. For a 5,000m runner to run like that is unbelievable."

Farah's time of 3:28.81 also sets a new European record, and is the sixth-fastest time in history.
