Olympic sprint champion Usain Bolt will take part in the 150m street race in Manchester on Sunday, 17 May.
Bolt's participation was in doubt after he was involved in a car crash in Jamaica on 29 April and had to have thorns removed from his left foot.The 22-year-old, who won gold in the 100m, 200m and 4x100m relay at the Beijing Games last summer, returned to light training last Friday.
Bolt's coach Glen Mills said: ""He looks OK and will be fine for Manchester.""
The 150m race will see the Jamaican competing against top British sprinters Marlon Devonish and Simeon Williamson in Manchester city centre.
