Jane Channell (born August 23, 1988) is a Canadian skeleton racer who has competed since 2011 and was selected to the national team in 2013, joining the Skeleton World Cup squad in 2015.[1] Channell was inspired to try skeleton by Jon Montgomery's gold medal at the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver.[2] Before skeleton, Channell played softball and competed in track and field, winning the Great Northwest Athletic Conference indoor track titles in 60 metres and 200 metres.[1] Channell was named one of the three women to represent Canada in skeleton at the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang[3] after finishing fifth in both the overall and World Cup standings for the 2017–18 season.[4]

In January 2022, Channell was named to Canada's 2022 Olympic team.[5][6][7]

Notable results

In the 2015–16 season, Channell had seven top-ten finishes out of the eight races and finished third in the overall ranking,[8] but dropped to 11th overall in the 2016–17 season. Her best individual finish on the World Cup was a silver medal at the 2015–16 race in Park City, a result which she equalled in 2017 at Whistler.[1] Her best result in the IBSF World Championships was in 2015 at Winterberg.[9]
