Olympic hopefuls


The Olympic Stadium

Heyy Guys,
The olympic stadium is being used for the first time since the opening ceremony.
More than 200,000 people will be at the park.
Great Britain have hopes of further gold medals during the day, including in rowing, track cycling and swimming.
Team GB have risen to fifth in the overall medal table with five golds after three were secured on Thursday. 

 Sir Chris Hoy had his victory, with Philip Hindes and Jason Kenny in the team sprint, represented his fifth Olympic title and equalled rower Sir Steve Redgrave's record British, Olympic gold medal haul. 
Hopes are high for rowers Katherine Grainger, who has three silvers from three previous Olympics, and Anna Watkins in the double sculls, swimmer Rebecca Adlington, who defends her 800m freestyle title, and the men's track cycling pursuit team.
Highly fancied heptathlete Jessica Ennis also gets her campaign under way at the Olympic Stadium, in the 100m hurdles, the high jump, the shot put and the 200m.
Other British athletes in action on Friday will include world champion Dai Greene in the men's 400m hurdles heats and defending Olympic champion Christine Ohuruogu in the women's 400m.

Good Luck to them all!
