    According to the medals table, that is now England's 120th medal!

    :o
    Only 10 more to get our target and with Boxing finals still to come and some medal chances elsewhere still too I reckon we could get at least another 12

    Michael Johnson look pretty bored in the studio tonight, more so than normal I mean. Hopefully the 800m will cheer him up.

    That run by Rudisha in London was one of the great performances, in an era where the records are often challenged only in grand prixs with pacemakers and setup for the attempt to turn up in an Olympic final and break a record which had only been broken a handful of times in 30 years was supreme.

    Amusing to think someone last night saw 120 as the absolute maximum number of medals England could get....;)

    Amos! I was cheering him down that straight. It was like he was on a motorbike. :D

    I can't even be bothered to make a Red Dwarf remark regarding Rimmer.

    He probably did better than Osagie would have done though.

    Not surprising. He's not had a good season and Amos beat him in Monaco DL.

    I think we could see a games record in the final of the women's 200m but the men are very slow.

    "Technical fault" in the women's long jump. Water in the computer, most likely.
