What a day for Team GB

Then we get the fastest 100m race in history - just how fast can Bolt run

Come on team GB!!!​

I can't believe how Bolt started celebrating 10m from the finish - he was streets ahead of the others

A fantastic day for Team GB, hopefully it will continue tomorrow with the sailing, cycling & Paula in the marathon

I missed it all, so can't wait to watch the highlights

We are having such a fab weekend, one Gold in the bag already today! Go team GB!

I am loving watching it - we don't usually bother watching much of it but have really enjoyed it this time.

Medal total so far today: 4 gold, 3 silver & 1 bronze. I think we are going to beat our medal total from the last 2 games, we have already matched the total golds won in Sydney which was 2 more then Athens.

I'm glad Paula was able to complete the marathon which was an achievement after everything that has happened to her this year.

We are so gladall of our GB teams are doing so well, they are doing us proud for the size of our nation. If the USA didn't have a certain swimmer they would be on a par with us and they have twice as many competitors entered into events. So come on everyone get cheering our men and women on and lets hope for more excellent results.

Woohoo! Team GB are in third place in the medals table at the moment! China and USA are the only countries ahead of us, and they both put in pretty big teams (not saying that their athletes aren't extremely talented, as they all worked very hard for their medals).


Anyway, just thought I'd join in the happy dance!

how good are we doing !!!!

still 3rd in the table with our best haul of gold medals since 1908 !!!

Just wait until the Paralympics; that's where this country really starts to shine (quite literally, with all the medals we get)!
