🚨 RECORD ALERT 🚨

What a run from Ky Robinson. πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ”₯

Running 12:50.82 at the Oslo Diamond League, Robinson has become the fastest Australian in history over 5000m.

In the process, he broke Craig Mottram's Australian record, a mark that had stood for 22 years.

A historic run. A new Australian record. History made.

Every city has its landmarks.

Melbourne has The Tan.

A place where records are broken, friendships are formed, goals are chased and stories are written every single day.

For many, it's more than a running track.

It's part of Melbourne's identity.

One lap. One hill. No hiding.
