Rio 2016: Time for Britain to raise the bar again and reverse the trend of host nations dipping at the next Olympics

For Jessica Ennis-Hill, it will be a venue and an event that will forever define her. At London 2012 the expectation was ferocious, and billboards of the poster girl of the Games were littered across the country, but she duly delivered for a career highlight that she readily admits will never be matched.

This weekend, Ennis-Hill has been back at the Olympic Stadium for the Anniversary Games, reunited with the two other protagonists of Super Saturday in Mo Farah and Greg Rutherford – venue and athletes indelibly linked.

“I’ll forever want to go back there as it’s got so many great memories, of the gold, the crowd and everyone coming together,” she said.
