Athlete qualifies for Olympic triathlon, 10,000 metres only months after surgery

heart. - July 8, 2000 |

wants to make amends - Gold medalist has had her biggest
success and most bitter disappointment in Canada
Sharon Donnelly knows what it's like to hit the high point of her triathlon career in her
home country. But she also knows what it's like to skid to the lowest point faster than
you can say "wet suit." - July 7, 2000 |
