About this title

Synopsis

The candid memoir from one of Australia's greatest track and field athletes who brought audiences to their feet for more than 14 years of international competition. Raelene, whose refusal to use drugs in the 1970s cost her several Olympic gold medals as she ran against athletes later found to be drug cheats, details her battles to beat breast and ovarian cancer, as well as her ongoing fight to overcome severe depression.
