Kelly Holmes winning 1500 meters fantastic. So good to see such a brilliant athlete do the double.

Brilliant race, wasn't it?

Apparently the last time a British woman has won both 1500 and 800 gold was 84 years ago....wow

It was fantastic - I watched it and I'm not a fan of the Olympics.
She was totally amazing

tears in my eyes, I could see from the start that she was so zoned out and focussed, from then I knew she would win.
How great is she!!
She is older than me too
The shame!!!!

fantastic to watch, her running today and in the 800. So in control and relaxed although probably going through all sorts inside herself. I'm just waiting for the headlines tomorrow though something along the lines of "Kelly dethrones Paula as Queen of UK Athletics" or similar.

It was awesome - I kept thinking 'just go, you're letting them get away' but she knew better - fabulous running and so, so deserved.
