Merewether's Rose Davies will compete at her maiden Olympics after being selected in Australia's athletics team for Tokyo.
Davies, one of 22 debutants in the Games squad, was given the nod to run the women's 5000 metres.
The announcement was made on Saturday.
Earlier this year she became the national 10,000m champion by taking out Zatopek in Melbourne, but hadn't reached the qualifying standard.
Izzy Batt-Doyle and Jenny Blundell, who raced in the Hunter in January as part of her preparations for Tokyo, will also contest the 5000m at the upcoming Games.
"With just weeks to go until the Tokyo Games finally begin, it's incredibly exciting to see 36 more athletes announced to the Australian Olympic Athletics Team," Athletics Australia CEO Peter Bromley told AOC media.
"What's more exciting is the real mix of experience we have in this fourth wave selected.
"We have 14 Olympians joining the team once again, including Jeff Riseley who will add Olympics number four to his list of achievements, and 22 debutants, all of whom have made a lasting impression on the Australian athletics community, including our youngest athlete on the team, 18-year-old Ellie Beer.
"This highlights to me that the future of athletics in our country is strong and bright.
"It's not only these athletes we must congratulate today.
"Each of them has a great support system around them, including coaches, support staff and their families and friends who have all buoyed them up to make this happen.
"We have a big few weeks ahead as our team now goes into camp to put the finishing touches on their final preparations, but I'm looking forward to seeing all 63 Australian track and field representatives put their work from over the last five years into action."
With 63 athletics selected for Tokyo, only Sydney 2000 (87) and Melbourne 1956 (75) have had bigger Aussie teams.
