OK, back to the best British performers. First, athletics.
Four golds here - Jessica Ennis's was expected (but nevertheless, she was a great example of doing even better under intense pressure) and Greg Henderson's in the long jump really wasn't. But obviously, Mo has to win this prize. And if I have to choose between his two events, I'm going to go for the 5,000m and a race where going into the last 600m, there were probably ten runners still in contention. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/olympics/19228975#asset
