Jane Wanjiku
Jane Wanjiku Gakunyi (born 14 June 1979) is a Kenyan long-distance runner.
At the 2003 World Cross Country Championships she finished third in the short race, while the Kenyan team, of which Wanjiku was a part, won the team competition. She finished ninth at the 2004 World Cross Country Championships, but this was not enough to win a medal with the team.
She is not to be confused with Jane Wanjiku Ngotho, a Kenyan runner and world junior champion from 1988.

gollark: Really, what we need is magic low-energy-use personal teleporters.
gollark: Except you're also now lugging around the weight of the batteries and motors.
gollark: Pedals are uncool.
gollark: So if you have a set of electric cars with small batteries - enough to travel within a city and near it - available for rent, and you don't suffer too much overhead from having to rent them out, that could conceivably be a good method of transport.
gollark: Electric cars are expensive *partly* because they need batteries for hundred-mile journeys, even though most actually won't be this long. And cars are kind of inefficient because most of the time they're left idling.
