Mo Farah is used to achieving double success - but not normally on the same day.
Yet on Friday he experienced such an outcome when he was named British Male Athlete of the Year by both British Athletics and the British Athletics' Writers Association.
He was not alone in celebrating the double honour as Christine Ohuruogu won the women’s title from both organisations.
Katarina Johnson-Thompson won the Young Athlete of the Year at the British Athletics awards to cap her outstanding summer.
Farah arrived to the IAAF World Championships in Moscow as the man to beat in the 5000m and 10,000m.
He proved his strength, his opponent were unable to surpass the Olympic champion at both distances as he achieved the glory of taking two more gold medals.
Farah won the 10,000m on the first evening of the championships in 27:21.71 and then retained his 5000m crown with victory in 13:26.98.
It is the fourth year he has won the writers’ award.
Ohuruogu’s victory in 49.21 in the 400m in Moscow saw her win the world title for the second time after her triumph in Osaka in 2007.
She also broke the national record by lowering her personal best by 0.20.
“Winning gold and setting a new British record in Moscow was one of the highlights of my career. It is great to win medals on the track but it is extra special to be given awards like this that have been voted for by people involved in athletics,” she said.
And the double delight for the Ohuruogu camp did not end there as her coach Lloyd Cowan was also honoured twice.
He was named Coach of the Year by British Athletics and in the writers’ event he received the Ron Pickering Memorial Award for Services to Athletics.
Johnson-Thompson, who won the European Athletics Under-23 heptathlon gold, and then finished fifth in the World championships, is one of the sport’s rising stars.
To win any award is a big thing for me but to win the British Athletics Young Athlete of the Year is amazing,' she said.
Zak Seddon, who won the 3000m steeplechase at the European Athletics Junior Championships in Rieti in 8:45.91, won the writers’ Jim Coote Memorial Award for junior men
The Lillian Board Memorial Award for junior women went to Jessica Judd, who made quite the entered the international stage quite remarkably with victory at the 800m at the European Athletics Team Championships in Gateshead.
