Barely a minute after the start of the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games women’s 400 metres, Cathy Freeman was sitting in a crumpled heap on the track. This was scarcely the pose you would expect of a gold medallist, but it was all Freeman had left after defying one of the...
You recently won the Noosa bolt. Are you happy with your current form? I feel like I'm heading in the right direction with my fitness. Leading up to the Burnie10 and Noosa Bolt I was doing heavy base work with only one threshold session a week but lots of longer...
This year you've stepped up to the marathon. You have terrific potential to knock out some rock solid times over this distance. How do you rate you performance so far? I’ve only competed in the one marathon to date (Sydney, 2013) and it was by far the most underwhelming performance...
Highlight of the year with running? I had so many highlights and new experiences last season, but I would have to say winning the bronze medal at World Juniors was definitely my favourite. I found it a very difficult preparation with trying to peak again and balancing this with adjusting...

I’m happy to say I’ve been up and running for a few months now and I’m feeling great! However, my return to training has been quite challenging, not realising taking a month off training would take such a big toll on my conditioning. As a result, it was important...
How Was the Uni Games Experience? The experience of coming to the world universiade has been an incredible experience, although my result was a little disappointing missing out on the final by .2. The opening ceremony was something that I would expect to see at the Olympics with around 50,000...
