Race walkers Jemima Montag and Rhydian Crowley have added to Australia’s medal tally after claiming a bronze medal in the mixed marathon relay at the Paris Olympics.
Montag finished fourth in the final stage, but overtook Italy and crossed the finish line third, behind Spain and Ecuador.
It is Montag’s second bronze medal of the games after finishing third in the women’s 20km race walk last week.
She also becomes the first Australian woman since sprint legend Raelene Boyle of Munich 1972 to win two athletics medals at one Olympics.
More to come.
