UK Sport "understands" Mo Farah's decision to make his blood-test data available after the sport was rocked by fresh doping allegations.

UK Sport has backed Mo Farah's decision to make his blood-test data public, but has urged athletes to be cautious.

The double Olympic champion is one of eight British athletes to release the results of anti-doping blood tests after the sport was hit by fresh allegations.

The Sunday Times recently alleged that cheating was present in past London Marathons, while Farah's coach Alberto Salazar was accused in a Panorama documentary in June of committing doping offences.

Farah has not been implicated in any allegations, but the 32-year-old is determined to prove that he is a genuine athlete.

A UK Sport spokesperson told PA: "We understand the action taken by those who have chosen to be transparent at this point in time as a demonstration of their commitment to clean sport. However, we must also respect every athlete's individual choice regarding the sharing of their personal medical information.

"UK Sport has a zero-tolerance policy on doping and support the work of UK Anti-Doping and the national governing bodies to ensure athletes and athlete support personnel are very aware of their responsibilities to train and compete cleanly to maintain the integrity of sport and competition."

Jo Pavey, Andy Baddeley, Hatti Archer, Freya Murray, Lisa Dobriskey, Emma Jackson and Jenny Meadows have also made their data public.
