  • Anne Audain is the only New Zealand woman to win Commonwealth Gold on the track after a convincing win in the 3000m at the 1982 Brisbane games. Now in her sixties and still running every day, Audain shares her life story of surgeries, abuse, bans, dominance, and, finally, triumph.
    From tennis champions to dance craze inventors, Scratched celebrates New Zealand sporting heroes who never got their due - but whose legacies deserve to be in lights.

    Good story. A little weird to be seeing my dad’s name on the telegram at 7:29 banning her.

      Anne Audain is a champion athlete, and your dad should not have banned her, doing that to her was mean

    Kind of creeped me out that "cabin in the woods" thing. I hope she wasn't abused in other ways....

    Anne Audain was a trailblazer. The crooked sport administrators need to RECOGNIZE her and her many achievements. There should be statues and schools and highways and airports in NZ named after her. She is a remarkable woman and the first real NZ female sportswoman on the international level.
