    I think the target was 1-2 gold medals for athletics. 3 in a night. Incredible.

    I have had a couple of tears form over these games Nas. It's OK if it's over sport.

    I think that Mo Farah moment was one of my favourite Olympic moments ever. Great race and a great person.

    Nas, exctly the same, so proud to be British
    It’s my opinion to which I am entitled. Not everyone is a brain dead sheep who agree with others to be popular.

    What a fantastic day. That hour in the evening was truely fantastic.

    Very proud to be British tonight - and as has been said by a few now - Farah winning that in the way he did, probably will go down as one of my favourite sporting moments. Delighted for Ennis too, and Rutherford's interview was entertaining following a great set of jumps!
    !!! I WAS THERE WHEN DOYLEY SCORED!!!... the first time...

    I was worried we wouldn't get to 19 golds but we'll easily pass that figure now!

    Muist have been amazing to be in the athletics last night.

    5/6 finals..3 gold medals!

    I hope people note it won't always be like that though...

    There should be a special category for Ginger Gold medals.
    Believe it or not, I really WAS there when Doyley scored.

    Feel for Rutherford and indeed for the other gold winners in the rowing. Their massive acheivements seem almost overshadowed by Mo and Jess. As for the other rowers, didn't some boat win a silver? The fact that that's not being mentioned shows what a momentus day it was.

    All three athletes showed how to use the crowd to their advantage. Rutherford jumped further, Jess would possibly have settled for a good time in the 800m, but with the crowd behind her, pushed on to win in style. Mo just went for it. With 80,000 people behind him, even the great Bekele brothers had no chance of matching him. It was magical.

    It was so amazing, that I think I speak for most football fans, when I say my reaction to team GB's defeat in the football on penalties was a resounding "meh."
