INFORMAZIONI SU QUESTO EPISODIO
Patrick Tiernan blew everyone's expectations when he was amongst the lead pack for the 10,000m track event at the Tokyo Olympics. Less than 100m from the finish line as the pace continued to increase, Pat stumbled to his hands.
Many Australians can remember watching on in devestation for him, but in a moment of I-don't-know-what, he got up and willed himself over the finish line, still achieving a Personal Best (PB) time.
Pat says Australians should be proud of how they embraced him in this moment and ever since.
Pat is back for the Paris Olympics, but this time in the Marathon, a race he's been working towards for all of his running life - and one he says is much more enjoyable to run!
This is Pat's third Olympics.
His 90 year old Nan (his greatest hero) will be leading the cheer squad in his home town of Toowoomba, backed by her 24 grandchildren, all his cousins.
