Always my favourite race to watch at the Olympics mate, going all the way back to Brendan Foster when I was a kid, then Coe, Ovett & Cram, etc...

I’ve always preferred the longer distances, but it used to be great watching Coe beat a world record one week, then Ovett the next - sometimes even just a couple of days later.

Bronze for Ben Pattison in 800m, which is great, but they just put up a pic showing that Britain has never won gold at 800m in the World Championships. I know they didn't start until 1983, but that just seems wild.

Seems amazing considering GB's pedigree in producing top-class middle distance runners.
