At the 1980 Olympics Games in Moscow, she represented Great Britain, finishing in 11th place (1.85 m) in the overall-rankings.[3] She set her personal best (1.94 metres) in 1980.

Miller left athletics and married teacher and rugby player Roy Gittens before making a comeback under her married name of Gittens and winning the 1985 Southern Counties title.[4] In 1989, eleven years after her last podium place at the AAA Championships, she finished third again, this time behind Diana Davies at the 1989 AAA Championships.[5][6]
