Usain Bolt has revealed that he will run at the ExxonMobil Bislett Games in Oslo in June, his first confirmed meeting of the season.

Bolt will run in the 200metres at the event, one of 14 Diamond League meetings in 2011.

"As this year is a World Championship year, every meet is important for me in the build-up to defending my titles," Bolt said.

"My competition at Bislett and several other Samsung Diamond League meets throughout the season will be an important stepping stone towards that goal.

"My preparations have gone really well, the injury problem I had during the summer is fully healed and my training has gone according to plan."
