In a remarkable display of resilience amid the global pandemic, Australian middle-distance runner Stewart McSweyn has consistently delivered exceptional performances over the past year. Breaking Australian records in the 1500m and 3000m events, as well as setting an Australian all-comers' record for the mile, McSweyn has firmly established himself as a force to be reckoned with. Now, with his sights firmly set on the Tokyo Olympic Games, McSweyn aims to secure an Olympic medal in the highly competitive 5000m race.

The Australian record holder over 1500m and 3000m has announced to the world that he has left his Covid related disruptions in the rear-view mirror and returned to the pointy end of world-class middle-distance running. 

In a dream race at the Oslo Diamond League Australian Stewart McSweyn has broken Craig Mottram's Australian mile record, winning the prestigious race in 3:48.37. Stewie is now the 22nd fastest man in history over the iconic mile distance.

It took 24 months, not 18, for McSweyn to find his groove, but in this Covid-19 impacted year, McSweyn has certainly made the most of it.  In a shortened European season. McSweyn has claimed the Australian 3000m record, on September 17 in Rome, and now the men's 1500m record clocking 3:30.51 in Doha.
