Very often in sport we see the triumphs of athletes at the big events and then they quietly diminish to be replaced with the latest talent. However this was most definitely not the case for Race Walker Jane Saville who sustained a career spanning 20 years; and she even managed time to answer some of our questions at Women’s Sport Report.
Jane participated in every sport as a child, “I started ‘Little Athletes’ at the age of 4, its athletics for kids in Australia and New Zealand.” Jane “loved it, it was like a big social event for me.” The young athlete enjoyed winning relay in the Under 7 event, a sprinting ability that Jane admitted didn’t last long.
