Scots silver medallist Lynsey Sharp was 'throwing up all night'

Scottish medal winner Lynsey Sharp tells 5 live how she spent most of the night being ill in hospital ahead of the women's 800m final.

The silver medallist described the challenging year she's had after needing surgery twice on her foot, with a third operation planned at the end of the season.

Having been up all night and finally getting to sleep at 5.30am in the morning, she said: "you cannot imagine what the past year has been."
