Harriet "Hatti" Archer (née Dean) (born 2 February 1982 in Oxford, England) is a British long-distance runner who competes in cross country and steeplechase events. She was educated at the School of St Helen and St Katharine in Abingdon, Oxfordshire.
Dean set three British national records in the 3000 metres steeplechase in 2007, most notably at a rain soaked event at Don Valley Stadium in July of that year.[1] She represented her country in the World Cross Country Championships in Fukuoka in 2006 and in Mombasa in 2007 where she was 15th and the top British finisher. She earned selection for the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing but was unable to compete due to a stress fracture to her ankle.[2]
In July 2010, Dean ran in the 3000 metres steeplechase at the 2010 European Athletics Championships in Barcelona, finishing 4th in the final in a time of 9:30.19, eight seconds quicker than her previous best. Second-place finisher Marta Domínguez was subsequently stripped of this result and others in November 2015 due to doping offences, and Dean upgraded to 3rd place and the bronze medal.[3]
