Team GB at London 2012

We hope everyone has been supporting Great Britain by watching them at the London 2012 Olympics over the past few days. Who knows, maybe you have even been lucky enough to visit London and see the Olympic Games first hand!

Team GB's First Olympic Medal of 2012

Lizzie Armistrad came second in the Women's Road Race to bring home a silver Olympic medal for Team GB yesterday. With an exceptional time of 3:35:29, she only missed out on the gold by mere milliseconds.

You can watch the last few moments of the race here.

"GB cyclist Lizzie Armitstead is delighted and "a bit shocked" after winning a silver medal in Sunday's women's road race.
Marianne Vos of the Netherlands claimed gold with Russian Olga Zabelinskaya third in a thrilling, rain-soaked race that ended in a sprint finish on The Mall in front of Buckingham Palace.
The trio formed a breakaway group and in a sprint for the line Vos had too much speed and power to win gold."
