"Brenda Jones" is a former Australian Middle distance track event/middle distance runner, who after her marriage became known as "Brenda Carr".

At the 1958 Australian championships Jones won the 440 yards and 880 yards races. In 1960 she only managed a fifth place in 440 Yards but won a silver medal in 880 Yards. The same year the 1960 Summer Olympics were contested in Rome, and Jones won a silver medal in 800 metres behind Lyudmila Shevtsova.

Today she remains active in athletics. In February 2004 she ran a half marathon race in Australia in the group of 60-64 year olds in respectable 107:36 minutes and the 5 miles in 39:23 min. About 14 days later she ran 10 km in 48:08 min.
