GB are doing very well in the Triathlon. Hopefully they can hold on and get a gold and silver !!

GOLD MEDAL! That's 19 Golds for TeamGB. We also got a bronze.


Big congrats to the Brownlee brothers for getting the Gold and Bronze. Also means TeamGB is now on it's 19th Gold Medal for 2012 Olympic Games. We got 19 back in 2008, can we get any more? We sure can.

If Hoy and Pendleton can pull of the cycling in the Velodrome then we may have 21

We now have 20 GOLD MEDALS - That's means we have more Gold than we did in 2008 Olympic Games. We just got that in Dressage.

That's great news The Germans must not be too happy, I believe that was one they were likely to win gold in? 10 more (might be more or less now, not sure) and we beat the US, but given the gap and number of medals left, it seems a bit of a challenge too great to take. Still, for a country our size 3rd is very good.

First time since 1976 they haven't won gold in the event I believe.
