World Cross Country Championships, Mombasa, Kenya
DWP Civil Servant, Hatti Dean, ran the race
of her life on March 24th 2007, in the searing heat of Mombasa,
Kenya. Hatti, representing Great Britain in the World Cross Country
Championships, survived in temperatures of over 30C to lead the British team
home in 15th place and to 5th team overall.
Hatti, quoted in AW said, “It hasn’t
really sunk in, I didn’t know I was that high up at all. It happened so quickly
it doesn’t seem real yet”.
Her next target is qualifying for the Athletic World
Championships in the 3000m Steeplechase.
