Athletics today! What will happen today, after such a great day yesterday?

aren't the USA doing better than in beijing,they will easily better china in track and field,what else happens alongside track and field i can't rightly remember,

the aussies usually do their bulk of medals in the pool but other countries have caught up now unless you have a thorpe or a phelps,

and conegamer maybe you are right where is russia they do well in track and field but not like they used to,russia and the usa will be hitting the velodrome in rio,the usa already have a brit coach,he was on the telly yesterday,its funny you can see all the chinese/korean coaches in other teams for sports like archery and table tennis/judo and other sports,somehow i wish sport would be peoplel only from your country coaches training and infrastrucutre but those days are long gone i guess

Phelps is just an incredible athlete....

The greatest Olympian ever and comes across very well in interviews. America really couldnt ask gor a mutch better representative

As you can see, GB are well set on 3rd place, and the US on 1st currently. But who knows, as things change today!

Jess Ennis 100mh Hept 12.54!! World best, British Record, and would have won the Individual event at Beijing!

C'mon Nash & Satch!

Watkins and Grainger get the gold!!

GB up to 4th in the medals table!

Anyone watching the Rai 2/sport coverage in Italy? It sucks balls. The 400m is on they haven't showed any, shooting seriously? Also annoying can't watch any bbc coverage online just put some adverts on it it already happens on their website.

Great start for Ennis, and a gold with 2 Bronzes in Rowing so far today!

And I just use the BBC coverage, which is great, sorry...
