Lochsley Thomson
Lochsley Thomson (born 20 August 1973) is a retired Australian high jumper.
He finished fifth at the 1994 Commonwealth Games.[1] He also competed at the 1992 Olympic Games without reaching the final.
His personal best jump is 2.31 metres (7.6 ft), achieved in March 1992 in Adelaide.[2]
In the early 2000s, Lochsley switched to cycling and enjoyed the quiet roads of the Hawkesbury. A week before Ironman in 2003, we was involved in a comical bike accident with a fellow cyclist which saw him "Frosby Flop" off the road and into a water-filled roadside ditch after locking handlebars with the other rider. Both riders were safe but drenched to the core - warm coffee was enjoyed, as were fits of laughter, at the Bridge Cafe in Windsor at the conclusion of the ride.
