Overview

On the evening of August 4, 2012, the Olympic Stadium in London became the beating heart of a nation. In just forty-four electrifying minutes, Jessica Ennis-Hill, Greg Rutherford, and Mo Farah each struck gold, delivering a surge of joy that swept from Stratford across Britain and beyond. It was a night that redefined what British sport could be-and the moment London 2012 secured its place as one of the greatest Games in history. But the story began years earlier, with a determined bid, visionary planning, and a transformation of East London that changed the city's landscape forever. Fueled by National Lottery funding, guided by world-class coaching, and powered by the dreams of athletes and fans alike, Team GB rose from Olympic underdogs to global contenders. Super Saturday Forever takes readers inside the drama, from the tense IOC vote in Singapore to the roaring celebrations that closed the Games. It tells the true story of how Britain rebuilt its sporting fortunes-and why the legacy of that summer still inspires a nation to dream big.
