18 April 2012 / Meet Matthew Mitcham and other London-bound Australian athletes

Wednesday 18 April marks 100 days until the Opening Ceremony of the London 2012 Olympic Games. The Australian Olympic Committee will be holding several events around the country to mark the occasion (#100days).

As well as the official media conference at the Gold Coast Aquatic Centre and the Kookaburras with school kids in Perth, 11 Olympic hopefuls will be at two Fitness First gyms in the Sydney CBD.

Beijing Olympic medallists Matthew Mitcham, Ken Wallace and Melissa Wu will be just some of the athletes to meet and greet fans and talk about their London preparations. Three stars from the recent Olympic swimming trials - Daniel Tranter and Daniel Arnamhart - will also be there to celebrate the milestone to their first Olympic Games.
