Winner to go further

ENJOYING the growth and success in her thirties she had expected in her twenties, Aussie javelin gold medallist Kathryn Mitchell says there are no plans to stop any time soon.

Mitchell, 35, used permanent marker to put Tokyo 2020 in the diary yesterday, after claiming a breakthrough Commonwealth Games medal with a huge first throw.

Adding an Olympic gold medal is the big goal now and it’s not an unreasonable one given the context of Mitchell’s winning throw of 68.92m.
