What an incredible achievement by @jess_tren at the Perth Marathon yesterday! The two-time Commonwealth Games medallist completed her first marathon in three years in a time of 2:25:13, which included a new PB by 46 seconds, the fourth-fastest time by an Australian woman and the fastest marathon by an Australian woman on home soil! 👏👏🇦🇺💚💛

Happy birthday to 11-time Commonwealth Games medallist @ian.thorpe 🥳🎉

The @swimmingaustralia legend burst on the scene as a 15-year-old setting world records and winning four gold medals at the Kuala Lumpur 1998 Commonwealth Games.

Thorpey dominated the Manchester 2002 Commonwealth Games swimming meet winning six gold medals and even a silver medal in the 100m backstroke! Thorpey is a 10-time Commonwealth Games gold medallist which is the equal most for any Australian team member.

Enjoy your day Ian! 🎂🎉
