PROFILE
She is an English athlete who mainly competes in the 400 metres. She finished 4th at the 2000 Olympics with a personal best time of 49.79 seconds. In addition to winning the bronze medal at the 1998 Commonwealth Games, she has been a fairly successful relay runner.
"It's very, very grotty. Years ago everyone thought you just make do with what you've got, and that's what we're doing now. But when you compare it with the facilities at Birmingham and Sheffield we're so way behind and there are so many athletes from London who use Crystal Palace. I really hope things will change now we've got the Olympics, that the facilities will be upgraded. Unfortunately, I won't be around to sample them. It's for the kids and the up-and-coming athletes."
