2012 Sporting Memories: Super Saturday

For anyone (everyone) who watched the London 2012 Olympics, it was a sporting event that defined a generation. One that will forever be credited as giving the nation the right to call 2012, 'our year'. At the heart of the event though, was one historic day that nigh on any British resident will remember above and beyond all.
Super Saturday will forever go down as one of Britain's finest sporting days in history. A day that yielded no less than six gold medals for Team GB, caused a million rapturous applauses and screams around the nation, and numerous BBC commentators to be dangerously close to exploding with elation. 
First off, it was Team GB's rowers doing us proud with gold in the men's four and the women's lightweight double sculls at Eton Dorney, of Great Britain's most prolific hunting grounds in terms of medals throughout the Olympics.
Speaking of prolific hunting grounds... the nations women's team pursuiters added a third gold of the day from the Velodrome, and doing so reinforcing the notion that Blighty is king in terms of cycling. 
The following three gold medals from that historic Saturday came from the Olympic stadium, and all within the space of just one hour! One hour that was spent by yours truly, aswell as im sure half the nation, sitting in the living room along with the rest of the household going quite frankly ballistic. 
First to christen the hour was Sheffield's golden girl Jessica Ennis, who was crowned Olympic Heptathlon  Champion after establishing  a landslide victory in front of her adoring fans. Fans that, not ten minutes later, had yet more success to go wild about, with Greg Rutherford claiming Gold for Team GB in the men's long jump, ahead of Australian competitor, Mitchell Watt. Pure, sporting ecstasy.
Surely, no more success? But wait... here comes Mo Farah, well and truly placing the golden cherry on top of the Olympic cake by winning the men's 10,000m race within the stadium, in front of 80,000 ecstatic supporters and millions of viewers watching through the Beeb. It wasn't 'just' a gold, but a gold won with Farah displaying a sense of determination and gritted teeth to claw his way through the field and to the front with one lap to go, a place he maintained with the backing of the nation and the heart of man clearly desperate for Olympic success.
Six medals, all gold, on summers Saturday in London. Thank you London 2012, and Saturday August 4th, 2012.
