    A hectic three years after the last Olympics has been capped off with a return to sport's biggest stage for New Zealand distance runner Camille French

    A hectic three years after the last Olympics has been capped off with a return to sport's biggest stage for New Zealand distance runner Camille French


    French ran the 5000 and 10000 metres at the Tokyo Games amidst Covid in 2021, before switching to the marathon.

    French has since got married, had a baby - Sienna - and made the change to the longer distance.

    She says having Sienna on the finish line in Paris is going to cap it all off.
