Send us a text

Michael McKenzie went into the Seoul Olympics as the favourite for the Men's 1500m Freestyle.
Let's go back to the start, Michael swimming his very first 400m Freestyle event broke Stephen Holland's Australian Record as a 13-year-old.
Michael was destined to be a long-distance pool swimmer. He follows the thin black line, lap after lap day after day. To swim the 1500m requires you to have a tremendous base of fitness.
Before Perkins, Hackett, Kowolski and Hausmann, Michael was a Three-time Pan Pac's gold Medalist,  World Championship and Commonwealth Games medalist.
The Olympics beckoned, no one saw the stomach bug coming that went through the whole swim team.
