John Breaks Australian Record in 300m Hurdles at Capital Athletics Summer Series

FAST Running’s John has made history once again, smashing the Australian Record in the 300m Hurdles at the recent Capital Athletics Summer Series at Woden Park. At 75 years old, John continues to defy expectations, proving that age is no barrier to achieving greatness.

🔥 A Legacy of Records
This latest achievement marks John’s sixth national record across multiple age groups, cementing his place as one of Australia’s most decorated Masters hurdlers. His dedication to training, combined with the expert coaching of High Performance Sprints & Hurdles Coach, Steve Dodt, has taken his performances to new heights.

💪 Building Towards National Glory
John’s training partner, David O’Keefe, has also been putting in the work under Coach Dodt, with both athletes aiming for even greater honours—including National Medals and Records. With the 2025 AMA Nationals in Adelaide (April 18-21, 2025) fast approaching, their hard work is setting them up for strong performances on the national stage.

🚀 Running Excellence at Any Age
John’s record-breaking run is a testament to the power of smart training, commitment, and the pursuit of excellence. His success is an inspiration not just to Masters athletes, but to everyone who believes that it’s never too late to chase new goals and rewrite history.

Congratulations, John! We can’t wait to see what’s next.
