No Australian runner has ever held all records simultaneously.
Refusing to be overshadowed,Hull clocked 8:36.03 in the women's 3000m to become the first Australian woman to hold the 1500m,3000m and 5000m national records simultaneously.
It has been 20 years since two Australian records have been broken on the same day.
If vindication was required for the bold decision to go to Europe in the current COVID climate and compete,against the doubts of Athletics Australia,then the results they have achieved have given them some comfort.
In an aggressive run,with the kind of confidence to attack the pace makers and the field McSweyn didn't have have just six months ago,the King Island runner set up a massive lead which stretched at times to 50m.
He pushed the pace makers until the 350m when he surged and never looked back,finishing in 3:30.51 to break the record held for 10 years by training partner Ryan Gregson by 0.55s.
Only weeks ago,McSweyn broke the 3000m national record and last year at the Zatopek at Albert Park,he claimed the 10,000m record.
