Twenty-two and a bit feet doesn't sound much until you see it illustrated like this - then you realise how impressive it is and what a marvellous athlete Mary Rand was in her day..!!

Cracking image Amelia.

Cool subject and shot Amelia. I thought it was a wall at first, but those feet in the distance gave it away - lol! ;)
