MO FARAH SETS BRITISH ATHLETICS FIRST

Sun Aug 14, 2016 3:26 am

Earlier today, Great Britain athlete, Mo Farah, became the first British national to win Gold Medals in the same event in three separate Olympic Games (Beijing 2008, London 2012 and Rio 2016) when winning the Men's 10,000m race

Congratulations for a fantastic effort from a superb athlete and a very amiable guy :ayatollah:

Britain's Jessica Ennis-Hill gained a Silver medal in the Heptathlon, whilst Greg Rutherford gained a Bronze medal in the Men's Long Jump. Both events were fiercely competitive

Congratulations should also go to both of these, although Rutherford was clearly disappointed when he told the BBC reporter, "I'm gutted. I was here to win!"

Great mentality there IMHO! :thumbup: :ayatollah:
