Aussie Legend Visits Safehouse

Steve Moneghetti

The first athlete to compete in Oakley sunglasses in marathon in Australia was Steve Moneghetti a long-distance runner. He was not considered to be a good runner in primary school, as he never managed to win a single medal. By high school (St Patrick’s College, Ballarat) however, he had blossomed into a superb athlete and was well on his way to becoming one of Australia’s greatest marathon runners medaling in the World Championships and Commonwealth Games.
