Olympics marathon star who dropped out after just 1.2KM breaks silence

Sinead Diver has broken her silence after the Australian veteran's heartbreaking withdrawal from the Olympic Games marathon.

Aussie national record holder Diver, 47, pulled out of the women's race after just 1.2 kilometres, with worrying pictures showing the runner doubled over crowd barriers at the side of the course.

It was later revealed that Diver had been struggling with a plantar issue prior to the race, but an unrelated quad spasm hampered her chances.
