It was a glorious night for British athletics.

The 80,000 spectators at Olympic Stadium and millions watching around the nation will never forget what they saw.

Within a remarkable hour of competition, Greg Rutherford captured Great Britain's first Olympic men's long jump medal since Lynn Davies won the gold at the 1964 Tokyo Games, Jessica Ennis won the women's heptathlon and Somali-born Mo Farah brought the crowd to its feet with a sensational closing to take home the gold in the men's 10,000-meter race.
