FORMER ERINDALE STUDENT NATHAN HART WINS BRONZE AT THE

Nathan Hart (left) provided Canberra’s first success of the Commonwealth Games picking up bronze medals on day one, with Hart speeding his way into the record books in the process.

Hart led out Shane Perkins and in the Australian men’s sprint team in its bronze medal final against Canada before a dominant New Zealand romped to gold over England.

Hart's first lap in 17.381 seconds was the fastest ever by an Australian in team sprint history, highlighting why the 21-year-old is considered a talent of the future.

The former Erindale College student is reaping the rewards of a move to Adelaide earlier this year to train with Cycling ’s high- performance unit.

Hart is daring to dream about the Rio Olympics in 2016 now, although he plans to enjoy this bronze medal before getting too far ahead of himself.
