Richard Knight
Richard Knight is a Past Athlete of the Waverley Little Athletics Centre Inc.
With a massive 23 records and most of them not having been broken in the 10 years since Richard competed, he was an exceptional athlete. Regrettably, his athletics career was cut short in January 2003 (during his Under 14 year in Little Aths) when he was diagnosed with osteochondritis dissecans. Now aged 25 (2014), he is a fully qualified radiographer and loves to keep fit doing sessions in the gym, jogging, indoor soccer and, particularly, mountain climbing.
