Retrieved from 10play.com.au
Two times World Champion, four times Commonwealth Champion, in the sport of athletics, Jana Pittman personifies resilience and determination. When continued injuries that hampered her athletic career could have signalled retirement, she swapped the track for the ice. Jana joined the Australian Women's bobsleigh team, to become the first women to represent Australia in both a Summer and Winter Olympic games.
Outside of sport Jana has completed a Bachelor of Medicine and Surgery and a Masters of Reproductive Medicine. She is now a practising Doctor in the field of women’s health.
In 2021, Jana joined the cast of SAS Australia making it to the last day and the only woman remaining in the final four recruits. Incredibly, while managing to do all of the above, Jana is also a mother to six children, having recently given birth to twins.
Jana will be racing with the eldest of her six children, Cornelis Rawlinson.
Cornelis plays almost all types of sports and excels in all of them. He is six-foot-five tall, and with both parents being passionate athletes, it's no wonder that he has inherited that gene.
Jana and Cornelis are looking forward to the special bonding time they will get to share on the Race. With five younger siblings, Cor doesn't get much time alone with his mum anymore, and is looking forward to the time spent together.[3]
