She's been described as "the world's most dedicated volunteer" by Olympic gold medallist Sebastian Coe. But although you probably won't recognise the name, Rosemary Mula's Olympic career spans two decades. One of the Pioneer Volunteers for the Sydney Olympics in 2000, she marched with the Kiribati team four years later in Athens and again in Beijing and is now preparing to help train volunteers for the Rio games in two years time. Her Olympic journey though began 44 years before the Sydney games, when as a teenager, she was in the stadium for the men's triple jump at the Melbourne Olympics in 1956.
