The gold medal was already in the bag but there was no way Jessica Ennis was going to let anyone else cross the line first in that 800m.

Amazing results coming from the stadium right now!
What a spectacle from Jess!
And Rutherford doing GB proud too.
I'm smiling from ear to ear right now!

I wouldn't be surprised if that was Jessica Ennis's last heptathlon. She's a good enough hurdler to just concentrate on that and it could significantly lengthen her career.

It's looking like we should be keeping an eye on Johnson-Thompson for the future as well.

So anyone still think we won't match our gold medal tally from Beijing?

I didn't think we'd get any golds in the stadium this year if I'm honest, so to get two within 10 minutes is unbelievable. The home advantage is clearly most present inside the walls of the stadium

GREG RUTHERFORD WINS GOLD IN THE LONG JUMP! He seems to come across as a bit cocky to me. And these Golds just keep on rolling

That was absolutely perfect from Mo. The others couldn't maintain a quick pace and played right into his hands. And unlike Daegu, he waited to kick for him and got the timing right.
