 Ellen Van Langen
In a career plagued with injuries, Ellen Van Langen was indeed fortunate that her one good year, 1992, was a year in which an Olympic Games was held.
Van Langen had been a soccer player until 1986, but had then embarked on an athletics career specialising in the 800m.
Van Langen was still well out of medal contention as they entered the straight, but she then started a drive for the tape, passing every one of the first four from Tokyo, and winning in a season's best time of 1min 55.54sec (see photo above) from Nurutdinova and Quirot.

EvL: I'm not involved in coaching, just in managing, but of course we are also there for them at the competitions and in training periods to give them the accompany and advice they need.

 Maria Mutola - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
She also won the IAAF World Cup 800m and was the only person to beat Ellen van Langen throughout the whole year.
Some consolation came at the Memorial van Damme meeting a few weeks after the championships, when she broke the world record for 1000m, becaming the first woman ever to run the distance in less than two and a half minutes.
Mutola was unbeaten throughout 2003 and grabbed the headlines again that year, at the Memorial van Damme race in Belgium.
