Glasgow 2014 still possible, says Hoy

SIR Chris Hoy has confirmed he will make a decision early next year on whether to continue to the 2014 Commonwealth Games.

Speaking at the velodrome in Glasgow that bears his name, the six-time Olympic champion said it is still his hope to compete but that is entirely dependent on how his "body can hold on".

"Fingers crossed," he said. "I'm not looking too far ahead at the moment. I'm just getting back into training. I'm going out to Perth in December so I will be able to do some consistent training for the first time since the Games and get back into it. I can't wait."
