Hope you enjoy it - am going on Tuesday and then Saturday week - Mo's 5k. It was so hard to choose which nights to go. Saw Mo Farah do a 3k earlier this year - the result wasn't really of any consequence but still so stressful, not sure I will manage when it does count. Hope you have/had a brilliant evening.

Saturday will be amazing - the noise over the last couple of laps is astounding! Honestly makes your ears ring - I have never experienced anything like it!! We are flying out to Majorca on Saturday night so I will be finding a screen at the airport! Will think of you buzzing with excitement - enjoy!๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ˜€

It must have been incredible to be there. I did think of you. Personally, I was hiding in the kitchen some of the time. Am looing forward to it - have the 100m relays that night as well.

I'm sure there will be lots of screens around - enjoy your holiday.
