    Gout Gout & Lachlan Kennedy Want to Break His 100m Australian Record…But Can They? | Patrick Johnson

    In today’s conversation we’re joined by Patrick Johnson of Australia. Patrick is currently the Australian 100m record holder, and the first person from Oceania to break the 10 second barrier, having run 9.93 seconds back in 2003.His record still stands to this day over 20 years later, but has reentered the conversation as Australia enters a new golden age of sprinting with young athletes like Gout Gout, Lachlan Kennedy, Eddie Nketia and others all running fast times and coming close to finally taking it down. In our conversation, we do a full breakdown of Patrick’s 9.93 100m record race, including his mindset entering the year and exactly how he approached the race. We also discuss the current landscape of sprinting in Australia including the likes of Gout Gout, Lachlan Kennedy and Torrie Lewis, as well his thoughts around why Australia has seen such a rise in talent in recent years. Patrick also explains how he got into track & field in his early 20s and his experience competing against legends from Carl Lewis and Frankie Fredericks, to Maurice Greene and Usain Bolt. We also breakdown the 200m final at the 2005 World Championships where he finished 6th place. Finally, Patrick talks about the pressure of competing at the 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney, and what this next generation Australian athletes might expect as they prepare for the 2032 Games in Brisbane. ------------------------------------------- 📱Twitter: https://x.com/EmeroleAnderson 🎥 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheFinalLeg 📱Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/atkoeme/ 🎧⁠Subscribe and leave a review on Apple Podcasts ⁠------------------------------------------- Chapters: 00:00 Intro 01:20 Life After Athletics 02:45 How Patrick got into Track & Field 04:20 Learning how to sprint 05:25 Competing in the 1990s 09:52 Appreciating the development process 11:59 Breaking the 100m Australian Record 19:47 2005 Worlds 200m Final 24:33 2002 Commonwealth 4x100 Bronze 26:16 Competing at the 2000 Sydney Olympics 29:09 The Olympic hype in Australia 31:31 The rise of sprinting in Australia 39:42 What makes Gout Gout special 42:40 Lachlan Kennedy’s 9.96 at AUS champs 44:28 Gout Gout’s 19.67 at AUS Champs 46:39 Torrie Lewis’ potential 49:13 Advice to next gen Australian sprinters
