Jason Day in the two seat of the 1999 bronze medal winning quad scull

Jason commenced rowing on the 500m Lake Waroona in Bendigo. It is from this lake that he trained successfully to win a silver medal at the World Juniors in 1988. He had a long career in Australian teams before retiring before the 2004 Olympic Games.

Andrew Guerin developed and extended these histories to the current format in 2004 for publication in 2004 and then expanded the site.
