The Anniversary Games – QE Olympic Park

Saturday 27th July 2013

Today Gina & I were most fortunate to revisit the Queen Elizabeth stadium (Stratford), in order to see a Diamond League sporting event, held at the the same place as last years’ 2012 London Olympic games.



There was a welcome back from injury, but sadly no success this time around, for Jessica Ennis-Hill, who we saw compete in a few events.



We all cheered on Christine Ohuruogu, as she raced to win the womens 400m race in a world class 50 seconds.



Then we saw another great British Olympian, Mo Farah, storm onto a fantastic win in the mens 3,000m, in a personal best time.



Last, but by no means least, we saw Usain Bolt boost his ever growing athletics reputation, by being part of the winning mens 4 x 100m relay team in 37.75 seconds.
