AdelaideNow... Supermum Jana wins: "Rawlinson has to now be rated as one of our greatest ever athletes with her list of achievements including two world titles, two Commonwealth titles, two world junior titles and a world youth championships gold medal."
Don't know if she's a supermum, but she is now certainly a super athlete, the moreso because she has used adversity and life's challenges to grow into a remarkably strong athlete. Marriage and motherhood appear to have given her the sense of purpose , structure and grounding that she needed in order to centre herself and her obvious talents. Jana Pittman of the Athens Olympics was driving us all mad with her on again off again, yes I am, no I am not approach which was coming from her injured and emotional state. She has turned that fragility into unstoppable strength and is not only a superb athlete but an excellent example of how you can take your life, which is making you lose confidence and talent, and turn it around into something which shines and glows. She has to be given credit for the fact that she has really focussed herself on what she is truly capable of...and this is, being an inspiration to us all!! She really is a winner.
