Sally Gunnell, Athlete., - Biography
British athlete
Height 1.67m
Weight 56kg.
Born born July 29, 1966 in Chigwell, Essex, Britain
Sally
Jane Janet Gunnell, is a former Olympic champion in the 400m hurdles. She has
also worked as a television presenter predominantly for the BBC until January
2006.
Gunnell started out in athletics with the Essex Ladies club as an accomplished long jumper & pentathlete before turning to the sprints & hurdling & is the only woman to have held the European, World, Commonwealth & Olympic 400 metre hurdles titles at the same time.
Gunnell won the 400m hurdles at the 1992 Summer Olympic Games in Barcelona. She set the world record in the same event when she won gold in the 1993 World Championships. This record was broken by Kim Batten in 1995, but is still the UK record. Her defence of her Olympic title in Atlanta in 1996 was cut short as she pulled up in one of her races, injured. This seemed a particularly cruel blow as this race occurred on her 30th birthday.
In 1996, Gunnell worked as a Red Cross ambassador in Angola. In September 1997, she retired after a recurrence of an achilles tendon injury.
In summer 2006, she was a celebrity showjumper in the BBC's Sport Relief event Only Fools on Horses.
She is married to fellow athlete Jonathan
Bigg & has three children, all boys
