Sonia holds no records at Waverley Little Aths. She is now however, an outstanding athlete, who has persisted to follow her dream and practice hard ! Sonia was a VIS scholarship holder prior retiring from athletics in 2007, and is finally completing her Law/Medical Science degree. At the 2006 Commonwealth Games, Sonia finished 7th in the 400mh final. Many of you will have met Sonia at our Little Champions Coaching clinic that we had in November 2004 and last Sunday (2nd April 2006) at the Waverley Gift meeting, where she ran the 100m and 400m against the men (and was brilliant :-)
