Her shoulder-length blonde hair and prowess on the track earned her the ‘golden girl’ tag during a glittering running career in which she won bronze in the 1980 Olympic Games. Hartley won bronze medal at Moscow Olympic Games and was champion body builder. She was awarded an MBE in 1979.
After retiring from athletics she became a champion body builder and won the ‘Miss Britain Physique’ title. She later ran a line dancing school in the city and had been working as a hotel leisure club manager when she died.
