    England's Danny Talbot could not get near that Jamaican trio in the 200m final, but said he was pleased with his overall performance in Glasgow.

    "To be honest I go into every race wanting to win. I don't know what went wrong. I have learn how to handle myself against these big names," he says.

    "I wasn't far from my best but I need to move on from these times. I don't think I'm that far off but I just need to get that one race for it to click and then it will give me a huge confidence boost."

    "I am so on fire watching everyone else," the England hurdler says. "I am so happy I got my chance to run today. Obviously Sally Pearson is a fierce competitor and hopefully we can put on show in the final."

    Talking of the weather it is positively balmy (by Glasgow standards) at Hampden now. The dark clouds and pack-a-macs have gone away as these athletics-hungry folk stay seated. The medal action is over but that does not mean this hardy lot are sneaking off for an early train. No way.

    The qualifying round of women's discus is heating up, while reigning Olympic and Commonwealth champion Sally Pearson is sure to get a warm reception when she steps out in the women's 110m hurdles. The heats are about to begin, so you can't go anywhere either...
