It’s been almost 2000 days since the world was last at the Summer Olympics in Rio 2016 and yesterday, we celebrated just 50 days to go until our Aussie athletes take the Olympic stage again.
With 50 days to go, Australia’s Olympians and Olympic hopefuls are readying their Qantas boarding passes and collecting their Crumpler suitcases.
As the anticipation grew, social media began to buzz with everyone sharing what reaching the 50-day milestone meant to them.

Many other athletes and sports, federations and institutes also posted in honour of the great milestone.
