Pistorius D-day for track return

OSCAR Pistorius will sit down tomorrow and decide when to get back on the track.

Pistorius, who is now allowed to travel abrard for competitions after his bail restrictions were lifted last week, is to meet his agent Peet van Zyl.
And Van Zyl revealed yesterday that he has already been contacted by a number of meet organisers who would be willing to let Pistorius compete, despite the South African star being on a murder charge.
The 26-year-old is on bail after being charged with the premeditated murder of his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp, who was shot dead at his home in Pretoria last month. Pistorius claims he mistook her for an intruder at his home.
Organisers of the Manchester City Games, where Pistorius was originally scheduled to run this month insisted at the weekend they would not be re-inviting him.
And UK Athletics — which is hosting the London Grand Prix in July on the first anniversary of the 2012 Olympics — have already sought to distance themselves.
But Pistorius — dubbed the Blade Runner — could try to qualify for this year’s World Championships in Moscow in August having fought a long-running battle to run alongside able-bodied athletes and make his debut at the event in 2011.
Van Zyl admitted that Pistorius had NOT been training since the shooting but insisted: “I have received through the whole ordeal emails of support from various meeting directors showing their support and condolences for Oscar and wishing him well through this tough time and they hope one day to see him back on the track.
“When the time is right we will approach competitions and I’m sure there will be guys out there who will be willing to have him back out on their track.”
“If he qualifies for Moscow, and then on the basis of innocent until proven guilty, he will be free to run. We will sit down on Tuesday to talk about it.”
