Alumna: Sue Bourke Canberra Running Coach, November 14, 2019February 7, 2024 Sue Bourke trained with FAST until the 2019-20 season. As a Masters Athlete, Sue really came into her own. Among Sue’s many accomplishments are her two Australian Records (W55) in the 4x100m and 4x400m at the Perth World Athletics Championships (2016), where the Australians won Gold in both events and Sue earned a bronze medal in the individual 400m final. Highlighting Sue’s longevity in the sport, she competed in the Optus Grand Prix in 1997 winning her 100m. Competing on the National Stage, Sue made 26 individual Australian Championship Finals, winning 4 Gold, 11 Silver and 5 Bronze medals. Away from the Track, Sue designed the FAST logo that depicts an athlete running and hurdling at the famous AIS.
