During ovulation multiple eggs can be released but eggs will only live around 24 hours, even with multiple eggs produced at most there is only a viable egg present for 48 hours.
This is one of the great things about reproduction, around a week leading up to ovulation the cervix produces mucus that allow the sperm to swim up where they can swim into the fallopian tubes and then hibernate until the woman ovulates, hormonal signals then tell the sperm to 'wake up'. Thus rather than there only being one day when a couple can have sex to get pregnant, there are up to 10 fertile days.
