A massive congratulations Tyler Gunn!
Over the weekend, the IAAF World Relays were held in Yokohama, Japan. On Saturday, Tyler and the men's 4x400m team finished 4th in heat 1, against some very strong competition. They qualified for the finals with a time of 3:03:53 - the fastest Australian time in 6 years. You can watch the heat here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YTMhcLfC3sU
Last night, the team ran 8th in the final, and placed 7th due to another team being disqualified. Their time was 3:05:59, Tyler running the fastest leg in 45.5 seconds! Fast forward to 1:32:00 to see their race:
