Victorian Senior Mens Skater Mitchell Ross was the former holder of the National record for the 21km Australian Junior Half Marathon.
At the 2018 Nationals Speed Skating Championships in Perth this year, Team Skate FX and South Australian Speed Skater Mikey Bryant beat Mitchell’s record by an impressive 11 seconds. Mikey’s medal haul for the championships this year was an amazing 10 gold, 2 silver (1 for the track relay) and 1 bronze medal in the Junior International 5km Elimination on road.
Mikey is now on his way to the Oceania Championships at Easter time to test himself against New Zealand’s best on the bank track in Timaru. We wish him and all the Australian skaters the best of
luck over the ditch.
