The RMA Podcast. Episode 24. Celebrating life in sport, career, chasing dreams and family with Jana Pittman.

In this episode of the podcast we speak to Mother, Olympian, author and Dr, Jana Pittman. Jana is one of Australia's most well know athletic personalities and had a long athletic career, particularly of note in 400m & 400m hurdles events and loved running for her country.

The country watched Jana from her junior years at her first Olympic Games in the year 2000 in Sydney at the young age of 17, to the many championship races, winning 4 Commonwealth Championship medals, two world titles, (the second of which she won after giving birth to her son only 8 months earlier), to enduring injury and scrutiny, until she finally changed lanes and competed in her third Olympic Games in the Bobsled women's event at the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics. This made Jana the only Australian woman in history to compete in both the summer and winter Olympic Games.

There is no denying that Jana had drive from an early age to perform and succeed and succeed she did, both on and off the sporting field.

Early on sport is what defined Jana, however her true passion lay in her desire to for medicine, to become a doctor and to raise a family, both of those accomplishments she so openly shares with us in this episode.

In this episode Jana shares the highs and lows of her journey, the dreams and setbacks that come with pursuing your passions and the everyday failings of parenthood.

You can find out more about Jana and her achievements and current pursuits at www.janapittman.com

You can also follow Jana on her socials at @janapittmanofficial on instagram and you can buy Jana's autobiography Just another hurdle via her website or at most online book stores like Booktopia.
