Cathy Freeman won two medals in the Olympic Games, Silver at the 1996 Games in 400 meter run and Gold at the 2000 Games in 400 meter run.

She also won 2 Gold and 1 Bronze at the World Championships of 1995, 97 and 99 - all involving 400m; and 4 Gold and 1 Silver at the Commonwealth Games over different years.

Although Cathy eventually specialized in the 400 meter sprint, her early successes were in the shorter sprints - her first Gold medal coming as a member of the Australian team that won the 4 X 100m at the Commonwealth Games of 1990. At 'the Commonwealth' in 1994, she also won Golds in the 200m and 400m sprints and teamed to win Silver in the 4 X 100m relay. She missed the next Games in 1998 due to injury, but had won Silver in the 400m sprint at the previous 1996 Olympic Games and then won Gold at the 2000 Sydney Olympics. Her final Gold was at the 2002 Manchester Commonwealth Games, where she won Gold in the 4 X 400m relay and announced her retirement in 2004.

In total, Cathy Freeman won 7 Gold, 2 Silver and 1 Bronze, making a total of 10 medals in these major championships.
