Another Gold for Mo and GB secure 2nd place in the medal table.
It was another day of celebrating the great Mo Farah, after he showed why he is the best distance runner of his time, with another Gold medal in the 5,000m race. Mo now has 4 Gold medals over 3 Olympic games, and looks set to join the likes of Bradley Wiggins, Chris Hoy and Steve Redgrave and be knighted for his services to sport. There was a Gold in the boxing, when Nicola Adams won back to back championships in the women's fly bout. It was a Bronze for the women in the 4 x 100m relay; Asher Smith, Neita, Philio and Henry for their first medals. Arguably the toughest loss for GB has to go to Lutalo Muhammed in the Taekwondo on Friday. Muhammed was leading until the final second, when Ivory Coasts Cheikh Sallah Cisse connected with kick to gain the extra 4 points to win the Gold. Muhammed was distraught in the interview, but can still be proud with his silver medal.
Other GB medal winners including a memorable Gold and Silver win for the Brownlee brothers. Alastair won the Gold in the race, with Jonathan winning the second to make it a great result for GB. Liam Heath won the Gold in the Kayak single race in a very tight affair. Joe Joyce missed out on the Gold medal in the super heavy weight boxing, he lost out to Frances Tony Victor James Voka.

Kenny and Trott are once again the Golden couple! #Rio2016 #TeamGB
It was a memorable night for Team GB on the track, as Jason Kenny joined the elite group of athletes to have 6 Gold Olympic medals. In a nail biting mens keirin, with the race being restarted TWICE after the pacing bike was passed on both occasions. GB's Kenny looked to be in a spot of trouble after being one the racers that appeared to have crossed the pacer. All racers were allowed to race, and in classic Jason Kenny style, he took over the group with half a lap to win his 3rd Gold of the Olympics and 6th in his career. His partner Laura Trott sealed his place in Olympic folklore, when she won the women's omnium and her 4th Gold medal at the age of just 24! Katy Marchant also won her first medal, when she got the bronze in the women's sprint. It also guaranteed every GB cyclist went home with a medal in this Olympics.
There was another Gold for GB in the sailing, with Giles Scott continuing GB's dominance in Olympic sailing. Sophie Hitchen became the first woman to win a medal in the hammer throw in over 20 years. Lastly Nile Wilson won Bronze on the men's horizontal bar in a fantastic effort to round off a great gymnastics performance for Team GB this Olympics.

Day 8 dubbed Super Saturday brings more medals for Team GB as well as a final bow for Michael Phelps
Day 8 dubbed 'Super Saturday' in the past saw more medals added to the GB total, with the likes of Mo Farah winning yet another Gold in the 10,000 race and Jessica Ennis-Hill winning Silver in the women's Heptathlon and Greg Rutherford adding Bronze to his medal collection in the long jump. Jess Ennis-Hill missed out on Gold, after the impressive performance from Belgium's Naffisatou Thiam set 5 personal bests in 7 of the disciplines. It ended a disappointing 6th for GB's young Katarina Johnson-Thompson, however still only 23 she has plenty of time to put that right!
Mo Farah added a 3rd straight Olympic Gold, despite having a fall in the 10,000m race. The impressive Mo Farah won 2 Golds in London 2012, so was hot favourite to repeat his heroics. Greg Ruherford admitted to be disappointed not to have repeated his Gold in London, as he finished with Bronze on the day. He was edged by South African Luvi Manyonga and Jeff Henderson, who won Silver and Gold respectively.
It has been a memorable time in the pool for Team GB, as the men's 4 200m relay finished with a Silver, behind USA. Adam Peaty goes home from his first Olympics with a Gold and Silver medal, while USA's Michael Phelps finished his fantastic career with the Gold in the same race and a breathtaking 20th Gold of his career. Back to GB, it is now 6 medals overall, 1 Gold and 5 Silvers with it being the most successful Olympic games since 1908! A special mention to Jazz Carlin, who won another Silver in the women's 400m freestyle, losing out to the incredible Kate Ledecky from USA.
It may not have been quite the Super Saturday like London 2012, but we were still treated to more medals and great efforts from Team GB. Today we could see more medals, with Max Whitlock and Louis Smith competing in the floor exercise and men's pommels horse final and Andy Murray in the Tennis final. We also have some more track cycling with the women's sprint qualifying and the men's cycling sprint finals with a all GB final of Jason Kenny and Callum Skinner.

Team GB flex their muscles in the cycling and rowing once again
It was another memorable night for Team GB over at Rio, as Bradley Wiggins won Gold again and cemented his place as the most successful Brit in Olympic history. Wiggins, has 8 medals, which go back to Athens 2004, and has been an ever present in British Cycling since then. After breaking a World Record in the heats, Wiggins, Clancy, Doull and Burke beat Australia by just a second to take the Gold in the men's pursuit. Team GB won 5 medals last year, with 4 being Gold and being Bronze., there are still 4 more races including the women's pursuit to race today. It was also the second Gold for Team GB in 2 days, as Kenny, Hindes and Skinner took Gold on Thursday night in the men's sprint finals.
Another sport that Team GB have shown dominance is rowing, and yesterday saw the men 4's final of Gregory, Nash, Luoloudis and Sbihi won Gold in a epic battle yesterday, It was the 5th straight Gold in this race for Team GB. This was a day after the pair of Glover and Stanning win Gold in the women's pair final. It was a Silver for Grainger and Thorney yesterday too, as they came second in the women's double sculls to round off a successful few days in rowing.
With all these medals, it has dragged Team GB to 3rd in the medal standings, sitting behind USA and China. There are certainly more medals prospects to come, with Jessica Ennis-Hill currently leading the standings in the Heptathlon.

Another successful night in the pool for #TeamGB
After the heroics from Adam Peaty and Jazz Carlin earlier this week; it was the turn of Siobhan Marie - O'Connor and the Men's 400m relay team of Stephen Milne, Robbie Renwick, Daniel Wallace and Duncan Scott to take centre stage. Marie - O'Connor won silver in the 200m individual Medley and became the first British woman to win a Olympic medal in the race. She also smashed her own British record of 2.06.88 in an incredible race. It has been a tough few years for the swimmer with health issues, so this medal win was all that bit sweeter and hugely deserved,
It was then the 400m relay team that took silver, missing out on gold to the Americans on the night. The team, who are reigning world champions took home GB's 5th medal of the games. It also meant we have had our most successful Olympics in the pool since LA 1984 to make it that bit sweeter.
It has been a remarkable effort so far from the swimmers and we still have some diving to look forward to!
If you are into your swimming, then don't miss out on our exciting launch night event in London on the 22nd September. We will be interviewing former Olympian swimmer Joanne Jackson and getting her opinions on how Team GB got on at Rio 16.
