There was no one by the name of Lillian Boardman that competed in the Olympics. There was a Lillian Board that competed for Great Britain that won silver in the women's 400 meter dash at the 1968 Games in Mexico City. She was a gold medalist at the 1969 European Championships in the 800 meter run and 4x400 meter relay.
