Commonwealth Games silver! The crowd made me feel like I had won gold. New PB in qualifying, lowering my Australian Record to 3:25. Final was a challenge and I didn’t quite have it. Incredible feeling to step onto the podium at my first major Games. 📷 Michael Willson #GC2018 pic.twitter.com/7BCfGwJRHY

I think I am Australia’s most pitied man right now… but I don’t want to be!!! Fractions of a sec are what seperate people in this sport, and that’s what makes it beautiful. Huge thank you to the amazing officials for giving up their time to make these games amazing. GO AUS 🇦🇺

Good luck to my main man @kurtfearnley in the marathon this weekend at #gc2018 … Judging by the 5 people who just wished me luck thinking I was Kurt at the airport, I think everyone is pumped!

Despite suffering severe fatigue and requiring a wheelchair after a gruelling 10,000m, Patrick Tiernan waited for Toka Badboy (LES) to cross the finish line and congratulate him. Yet another display of true Australian sportsmanship during #GC2018.#GreaterTogether pic.twitter.com/bEnzV9ZE6r

What to say other than thank you. These women are the reason Australia can proudly claim one more Gold. This is a dream. Commonwealth Games Champion, and it was in front of a home crowd. I’m buzzing, I won’t be able to sleep for days. #TeamAus pic.twitter.com/5JvSWugEqr

Phew. Got thru calling @kurtfearnley over the line. That lump in my throat threatened to ruin it for all who were listening. What a bloody legend #GC2018

Please remember that @GC2018 has been the most inclusive event that our nation has ever hosted. We can’t let anything distract from that. We did something special on the Gold Coast & it was one of the best weeks of my life. The team, crowds, staff & volunteers nailed it. #kudos

The #GC2018 Commonwealth Games were pretty amazing, but nothing compares to hearing your daughters say just how proud they are of their Daddy. 😍🇦🇺💚💛 @CommGamesAUS @AUSParalympics @AthsAust #family #commonwealthgames18 pic.twitter.com/oJvQAPKfqq
