Jane Jamieson

Jane Jamieson (born 23 June 1975) is a track and field athlete from Australia.

Jamieson competed in the heptathlon in the Olympic Games, World Championships and Commonwealth Games, finishing with Top-10 results at each level, including a gold medal at the 2002 Commonwealth Games in Manchester.

After the 2000 Olympic Games, Jamieson was hampered by a string of knee, hamstring and calf injuries and missed the 2004 Olympic Games.

Jamieson returned from injury to qualify for the 2006 Commonwealth Games in Melbourne, but failed to complete the competition after suffering a calf strain to her left leg combining with the hamstring injury she suffered six weeks before the start of the Melbourne Games.

Jamieson signalled her desire to continue on to the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing and the 2010 Commonwealth Games in New Delhi, but was not selected for either.
