… That Steven Bradbury was Australia’s first Winter Olympics medalist? He won the 1’000m event in short track speed skating in the 2002 Salt Lake City Winter Olympics.
He was part of the Australian short track relay team that won bronze at the 1994 Lillehammer Winter Olympics.
There is a good life lesson to take out of this as well: It’s proof that you should never stop believing, never give up. A race is only over when it is over. Same with life. You will always have your chances as long as you keep going…
ha!

I remember seeing that finish, but didn’t recall, if it had even been mentioned, that this was Australia’s first winter gold. Figures that it would be in a fast and furious event like this!🏆
