Name your ONE Olympic and ONE Paralympic moment.

BMS1 [Edit] [Delete] 15:31, 9 September '12

There must have been a couple of name your moment of the games when the Olympics finished. The Paralympics have been a revelation to me, I've absolutely loved it. Shame that it's finally all over.

Olympic highlight: When I went to the first ever session of athletics and saw Ennis smash the field in the 100m hurdles. The atmosphere there was brilliant. No one had seen actual athletics at The Olympic Stadium before and so there was so much anticipation and excitement.

Paralympic highlight: Seeing Ellie Simmonds win the 400m freestyle last Saturday. An amazingly close race. I've never shouted so loudly at a race/match etc. with such excitement. I'll never forget the roar of the crowd at The Aquatic Centre when she won.
