Australia's greatest modern-day track and field athlete Sally Pearson has announced her retirement, acknowledging that her body can take no more punishment.
Pearson, 32, won gold in the 100m hurdles at the 2012 London Olympics and is a two-time world champion.
She had hoped to end her career in spectacular style next year at the Tokyo Olympics, but has now announced she will hang up her spikes.
