What an absolutely sensational night of Athletics

I'm not quite sure what was best...Ennis, Rutherford or Farah. Just sensational and a night that I won't be forgetting for quite a long while!

Stunning! Absolutely stunning! Been waiting 13 years for a night like that from British athletes. Jessica Ennis is now the 5th highest scoring Heptathlete ever, wouldn't be surprised to see her do the 100 hurdles as well. Mo Farah has to surely be short odds to win the 5k as well, he made it look ridiculously easy.

100m semi finals starting in less than 40 minutes, with the final following up in a couple of hours.

Gonna be interesting. I think it will be Blake's but watch out for young American Ryan Bailey.

Fucking hell, Bolt practically jogged 9.87 sec.

Not really impressed by Bailey, had a slow start although Gatlin looked good.
