The announcement, which coincided with Sun Awareness Week, means England (pictured above) will become the face of the Team GB sun care products which are on sale.

The two limited edition products, sporting the patriotic Team GB packaging, have advanced UVA and UVB filters.

"Garnier Ambre Solaire sun care products give me reassurance and peace of mind that my skin is protected against UVA and UVB rays, allowing me to focus on my intensive training, almost all of which is outdoors," said the 25-year-old runner.


"I know that whatever the weather, the sun can still damage my skin, so I have always made sure that I use a high factor protection before stepping onto the track.

"As my training really intensifies, the Team GB Clear Protect +SPF 30 and Team GB Moisturising SPF30 will be in my kit bag at all times."
